Ward,  Gilbert  Drake,  Ebenezer  Lockwood  and  Jonathan  Griffin  Tompkins,  Esqrs.,  Judges  of  the  Inferior  County

THE   VAN  WART    HOUSE. 


By  M.  D.  Raymond. 


About  four  miles  east  of  Tarrytown,  and  nearly  the  same  distance 
northwest  of  White  Plains,  north  of  the  Upper  (County  House)  Road  to 
White  Plains,  was  what  was  known  in  Revolutionary  days  as  the 
"Youngs  House."  At  that  point  the  road  from  Tarrytown  running 
east  and  west  is  crossed  at  right  angles  by  the  road  from  Unionville,  and 
from  the  intersection  of  these  roads  it  long  ago  received  the  name  of 
"The  Four  Corners."  The  former  road  is  the  dividing  line  between 
the  townships  of  Greenburgh  and  Mount  Pleasant.  It  is  an  elevated 
region,  nearly  midway  between  the  Hudson  and  Bronx  Rivers. 

The  site  of  the  famous  house  of  Joseph  Youngs,  where  the  fight  took 
place,  February  3,  1780,  is  yet  discoverable.  The  house  which  then 
stood  there  was  burned  by  the  British,  and  the  place  was  long  known 
as  the  "Burnt  House."  After  the  war  was  over,  Isaac  Van  Wart,  one 
of  the  captors  of  Major  Andre,  acquired  the  property,  and  the  house 
afterwards  built  took  the  name  of  the  "Van  Wart  House."  The  farm 
was  within  the  "  American  Lines,"  by  which  was  meant  that  it  was  in  that 
part  of  Westchester  County  which  was  mainly  controlled  by  the  Ameri- 
cans. Its  elevated  position,  together  with  the  number  of  buildings 
attached,  rendered  it  a  convenient  stopping  place  for  the  Continental 
troops  detailed  to  guard  the  country  between  Bedford  and  the  Hudson 
River,  Croton  and  the  "  Lines."     These  troops  were  ordered  to  be  kept 

men  and  Assistant  Aldermen  granted  franchises  to  two  companies  to  run  surface  cars 
in  Sixth  and  Eighth  Avenues.  The  line  of  omnibuses  carried  three  hundred  thou- 
sand persons  a  year. 

Mr.  Brown  lived  for  many  years  on  his  farm  at  Mount  Pleasant,  Westchester 
County.  His  farm  was  the  historical  one  which  the  United  States  Government  gave 
to  Isaac  Van  Wart  in  recognition  of  his  services  as  one  of  the  captors  of  Major 
Andre.  Mr.  Brown  used  to  refer  with  pride  to  the  fact  that  he  was  employed  on  the 
steamboat  Clianccllor  Livingston  in  1S25,  when  she  took  General  Lafayette  to  Castle 
Garden  from  the  vessel  in  which  he  arrived  from  Europe.  He  also  took  much 
pleasure  in  a  close  friendship  that  he  had  with  "  Commodore"  Cornelius  Vanderbilt.

in  motion,  partly  to  protect  the  country,  and  partly  to  elude  the  vigilance 
of  the  enemy  and  prevent  them  from  planning  an  attack  ;  generally,  there- 
fore, they  remained  but  a  short  time  in  one  place.  At  this  time,  how- 
ever, for  some  reason,  they  remained  at  the  "Youngs  House"  longer 
than  usual. 

The  Tories  in  the  neighborhood  conveyed  the  intelligence  to  the 
British  headquarters  in  New  York,  and  an  expedition  was  despatched 
against  them.  The  Continental  troops  at  the  "  Youngs  House  "  in 
January,  1780,  numbered  about  two  hundred  and  fifty  men,  chiefly  from 
Massachusetts,  and  commanded  by  Lieutenant-Colonel  Thompson  of 
that  State.  The  larger  part  were  at  the  "House,"  but  detachments 
were  posted  westward  nearly  two  miles  toward  the  Hudson  River,  and 
eastward  three  miles  toward  the  Bronx.  Pickets  were  stationed  in  front 
of  the  entire  line,  and  every  precaution  was  taken  to  prevent  surprise. 
On  Wednesday  evening,  February  2,  1780,  between  ten  and  eleven 
o'clock,  a  force  of  between  four  and  five  hundred  infantry,  and  one  hun- 
dred horsemen,  composed  of  British,  Germans,  and  Colonel  Delancey's 
Tories,  set  out  from  Fort  Knyphausen  (Washington),  under  command  of 
Colonel  Nelson  of  "The  Guards, "to  attack  them.  The  weather  was 
cold  ;  a  deep  snow  was  on  the  .around.  Sleighs  had  been  provided  to 
convey  the  infantry,  and  an  attempt  was  made  to  use  them  ;  but  they 
were  compelled  to  give  it  up  and  send  them  back,  together  with  two  light 
field  pieces,  as  the  snow  was  too  deep  to  admit  of  that  mode  of  convey- 
ance. The  cavalry  kept  the  main  road,  north  from  Yonkers  up  the  valley 
of  the  Nepperhan  or  Saw  Mill  River  ;  but  the  infantry  were  obliged  to 
get  along  the  best  they  could,  sometimes  in  the  road  and  sometimes  out 
of  it,  in  the  fields.  It  was  a  march  of  about  twenty  miles  by  the  shortest 
route,  and  they  did  not  reach  the  vicinity  of  the  "Youngs  House  "  until 
nine  o'clock  on  Thursday  morning,  February  3d. 

They  were  discovered  at  a  distance  by  Mr.  Campbell,  one  of  our 
guides.  He  gave  Lieutenant-Colonel  Thompson  notice  of  their  approach, 
that  their  force  was  considerable,  and  advised  him  to  take  a  stronger 
position  a  little  in  the  rear  ;  but  being  ve: y  confident  that  the  enemy  were 
only  a  body  of  "  Horse,"  and  that  he  could  easily  disperse  them,  he  would 
not  quit  the  ground.  Captain  Watson,  with  his  company,  was  with  the 
Lieutenant-Colonel  ;  Captains  Roberts  and  Stoddard,  with  their  compa- 
nies, were  on  the  right  ;  Lieutenant  Farley  and  Captain  Cooper,  on  the 
left.  The  enemy  first  attacked  a  small  advance  guard,  consisting  of  a 
Sergeant  and  eight  men,  who  behaved  well  and  meant  to  reach  the  main 
body,  but  were  prevented  and  all  taken  prisoners.  The  "  Horse"  soon 
appeared  in  sight  of  the  Americans,  discharged  their  rifles  at  long  distance, 
and  awaited  the  coming  up  of  the  infantry,  when  a  warm  action  com- 
menced. The  enemy  scattered,  taking  advantage  of  the  ground  and  trees 
in  the  orchard,  closing  up  on  all  sides.  After  about  fifteen  minutes'  sh?rp 
conflict,  our  troops  broke  ;  some  took  to  the  house  and  others  made  off, 
the  enemy's  "  Horse  "  rushing  on  at  the  same  instant  shouting.  At  this 
time  the  two  flank  companies  came  up,  but  finding  how  matters  stood 
judged  it  best  to  retreat;  Captain  Stoddard's  company  giving  a  fire  or  two 
at  long  shot  ;  Captain  Cooper's,  being  too  distant,  did  not  fire.  Some  who 
were  engaged  effected  their  escape.  The  enemy  collected  what  prisoners 
they  could,  set  Mr.  Youngs'  house  and  buildings  on  fire,  and  returned. 
Of  the  Americans  thirteen  were  killed,  and  Captain  Roberts  was  mortally

wounded  and  lived  but  a  few  hours.  Seventeen  others  were  wounded,, 
several  of  whom  died.  Lieutenant-Colonel  Thompson,  Captain  Watson, 
Lieutenants  Farley,  Burley,  and  Maynard,  also  Ensigns  Fowler  and  Brad- 
ley, with  eighty  nine  of  the  rank  and  file,  were  taken  prisoners.  The 
enemy  left  three  men  dead  on  the  field. 

The  British  in  their  account  of  the  action  acknowledged  that  they  had 
five  men  killed  and  eighteen  wounded.  The  thirteen  Americans  and 
three  British  soldiers  who  fell  in  this  engagement  were  buried  on  the  east 
side  of  the  road  upon  the  rising  bank  of  a  small  hollow  northwest  of  the 
"Van  Wait  House." 

There  was  a  spring  of  water  directly  opposite  the  "Youngs  House" 
on  the  east  side  of  and  in  the  road,  where  many  of  the  wounded  crawled 
for  water  and  died.  This  engagement  was  a  serious  reverse  to  the  Amer- 
ican arms,  the  "Lines"  being  pushed  back  at  that  time  toward  the 
Croton  River.  The  Youngs  House  was  not  rebuilt,  but  there  will  always 
linger  about  the  place  the  memory  of  the  tragedy  there  enacted. 


THE  VAN    HOUTEN    FAMILY    OF    BERGEN,    NEW   JERSEY. 


By  Charles  L.  Demarest  Washburn. 


(Continued  from  Vol.  XXVII.,  p.  190,  of  The  Record.)* 

The  identification  of  Johannis4,  who  was  baptized  June  17,  1735, 
married  Aeltje  Sickles,  and  had  children  Johannis  and  Sara,  with  Johan- 
nis6, the  husband  of  Rachel  DeMaree,  and  father  of  Helmigh,  Catrintje, 
and  Aegie,  is  thus  proved  erroneous.  The  former  was  the  only  child  of 
Johannis  Helmigse  Van  Houte  baptized  in  Bergen,  according  to  the  list 
of  baptisms  in  the  "  Land  Titles,"  and  hence,  evidently,  arose  the  error. 
Probably  Helmigh4,  the  elder  son,  was  baptized  elsewhere.  Although 
the  church  was  organized  in  1660  there  was  no  settled  minister  in  the 
town  until  1757,  and  in  many  cases  the  marriages  and  baptisms  of  the 
people  were  performed  in  other  churches.  We  find  in  the  list  of  deaths 
that  it  was  "John  Van  Houten,  son  of  Helmigh,"  who  died  October  31,. 
1807.  This,  however,  was  neither  Johannis4  nor  his  nephew  Johannis6, 
but  the  grandson  of  the  latter,  John',  a  child  of  four  years. 

That  Johannis  Helmigse3  had  two  sons  is  shown  elsewhere  in  the 
"Land  Titles."  In  the  text  of  the  "Field  Books"  f  a  certain  allotment 
is  adjudged  "to  belong  to  Johannis  Van   Houta  "  (sic),  and  the  accom- 

*  In  Vol.  XXVII.,  p.  1S6,  first  line  of  last  paragraph,  "  vii."  should  be  "  viii."  • 
in  the  third  line  "  Van  Houten  "  should  be  "  Van  Houtfli  ";  and  on  p.  187  the  words 
"  '  Land  Titles,'  p.  136  (note)"  should  be  inserted  at  the  beginning  of  the  first  note. 

The  statement,  p.  185,  that  Dirck  Helmigse3  Van  Houte  was  a  deacon  at  Ac- 
quackanonck  is  based  on  the  Hackensack  record,  which  says  thai  he  was  chosen  "  in 
place  of  his  brother  Rpelof"  ;  but  he  is  not  mentioned  in  the  list  of  elders  and  dea- 
cons in  the  Acquackanonck  records,  publication  of  which  has  been  begun  in  "The 
Church  Tablet"  of  the  "  Old  First  Church  "  of  Passaic,  N.  J.  (October,  1S96).  In 
addition  to  the  services  mentioned,  Pieter  Helmigse3  Van  Houte  was  chosen  deacon 
for  Acquackanonck,  May  30,  1717. 

\"  Land  Titles,"  p.  259. 


IO  The    Van  Houten  Family  of  Bergen,   N.  J.         [January, 

panying  note  states  that  it  "must  have  been  divided  between  Van  Hou- 
ten's  two  sons,  Helmigh  and  John."  In  another  note*  we  find  a  sale, 
in  1806,  of  the  front  part  of  a  lot  of  several  acres  by  John  Van  Houte, 
who  "had  previously  released  the  rear  part  to  his  brother  Helmigh." 

Subsequently  to  the  publication  of  the  "Land  Titles"  Mrs.  Tise  filed 
with  the  Register  of  Hudson  County, f  under  the  New  Jersey  statute 
respecting  "ancient  deeds,  "a  conveyance  dated  July  8,  1774,  made  by 
"John  Van  Houten  of  the  Township  of  Bergen,  Bergen  County,  Province 
of  East  New  Jersey,  Gentleman,"  to  "  Helmagh  Van  Houten  of  the  same 
place  and  province,  Gentleman,"  which  recites  that  Johannes  Van  Hou- 
ten, late  of  Bergen,  by  his  last  will  and  testament  "bequeathed"  to  his 
two  sons,  John  and  Helmagh,  his  real  estate  in  said  township.  If  there 
be  any  doubt  that  this  father  was  the  son  of  Helmigh  Roelofse,  it  is  dis- 
pelled by  another  deed,  of  May  24,  1784,  still  among  the  "Van  Hou- 
ten Papers,"  unacknowledged  and  unrecorded,  but  signed,  sealed  in  wax, 
and  witnessed,  in  which  "John  Van  Houte  Sen'r"  of  Bergen,  "farmer," 
quitclaims  "  unto  his  brother  Halmigh  Van  Houte  "  of  Bergen,  "  farmer," 
all  of  his  interest  in  a  certain  lot  of  land  "allotted  (by  the  commissioners 
who  were  appointed  to  make  division  of  the  Commons  of  Bergen)  out  of 
the  Commons  of  Bergen,  and  out  of  the  patent  of  Guert  Courte,  to  the 
late  Johannis  Halmighse  Van  Houte  of  the  Town  of  Bergen,  deceased." 

In  connection  with  an  allotment  to  Johannis  Van  Houte  it  is  stated 
in  the  "  Land  Titles  "  \  that  his  son-in-law,  Jacob  Zabriskie,  sold  the 
land  in  1S46.  This  confuses  "the  Van  Houten  named  in  the  Field 
Book  "  with  his  grandson  Johannis5,  father-in-law  of  Jacob  Zabriskie,  but 
indicates  the  descent  of  the  land  from  the  one  to  the  other. 

In  1764  Johannis  Van  Houten  owned  a  piece  of  land  covered  by  the 
patent  of  Governor  Stuyvesant  to  Jacob  Luby,  dated  September  14,  1 662.  § 
The  original  patent  is  among  the  "  Van  Houten  Papers,"  a  fact  further 
testifying  to  descent  from  the  Van  Houten  of  the  "  Field  Book."  It  is 
perfectly  preserved,  and  bears  the  seal  of  New  Netherland  in  wax,  and  the 
signature  of"  P.  Stuyvesant." 

My  grandmother,  born  in  the  old  Van  Houten  homestead,  now  in  the 
northern  part  of  Jersey  City,  was  interested  from  childhood  in  the  tradi- 
tions of  her  family.  The  names  of  Helmigh  Roelofse  and  Jannetje 
Pieterse  were  household  words  to  her,  and  through  her  to  me,  before  we 
first  saw  them  in  print  in  the  "  Land  Titles."  Her  uniform  statement  of 
her  line  of  descent  was  as  I  have  given  it.  She  must  have  conversed  with 
many  older  persons  who  had  known  several  generations  of  the  family  ; 
e.g.,  her  maternal  grandfather,  who  died  when  she  was  twenty  years  of 
age,  in  whose  house  she  lived  while  attending  the  old  Columbia  Acad- 
emy near  by,  and  near  whom  she  resided  after  her  early  marriage,  had 
reached  the  age  of  nineteen  when  Johannis  Helmigse3  died  ;  and  there- 
fore, in  so  small  a  community,  he  must  have  been  intimately  acquainted 
with  the  entire  line  of  Van  Houtens  after  Helmigh  Roelofse.  Doubtless 
he  was  the  "  Gerrit  Van  Ryper  "  who  witnessed  the  will  of  Helmigh.4 

The  paiernitv  of  Jannetje  Pieterse  is  shown  in  another  of  the  "Van 
Houten  Papers,"  a  deed  dated  June  30,  1712,  signed,  sealed  in  wax  and

witnessed,  but  not  acknowledged  or  recorded.  The  grantor  is  Jacob 
Matthewson  Van  Newkerk  (6).  It  is  recited  that  his  grandfather,  Jacob 
Lubie,  was  possessed  of  a  certain  farm  and  lots  of  land  "about  the  Town 
of  Bergen  "  and  "  also  of  houselots  lying  within  the  said  town  "  ;*  that 
Matthew  Cornelisson  Van  Newkerk  (1),  father  of  the  grantor,  "was 
possessed  of  a  small  slip  of  land  .  .  .  about  the  Town  aforesaid 
so  crooked  and  in  near  a  half  moon's  figure  as  at  present  it  is 
comprehended  in  its  fence";  that  the  said  "Lubie  was  prevented  by 
death  to  convey  the  recited  farm,  parcel  and  lots  of  land  ...  to 
Peter  Marcellus,  father-in-law  to  Helmigh  Roolofson  uf  Bergen,  the 
grantee,"  or  to  Helmigh  himself,  to  whom  said  Peter  had  afterwards  trans- 
ferred the  same  ;  and  that  said  Matthew  "was  prevailed  [s/cj  by  death 
before  he  could  legally  convey  the  recited  slip  of  land  to  the  said  Helmigh 
Roolofson,  who  purchased  and  paid  for  the  same."  Therefore  the  grantor, 
"  eldest  grandson,  son  and  heir"  of  Jacob  Lubie  and  Matthew  Cornelis- 
son Van  Newkerk,  conveys  all  of  the  land  mentioned  to  the  grantee. 

Mr.  Winfield  f  relates  the  following:  "Tradition  says  that  Dominie 
Jackson,  an  uncompromising  Whig  among  the  uncertain  patriots  of 
Bergen  during  the  Revolution,  once  preached  a  caustic  sermon  from 
Matt,  xxvi.,  15,  applying  the  text  to  his  Tory  hearers — some  of  them  of 
his  own  congregation .  For  this  he  was  arrested  and  taken  before  the  com- 
manding general  in  New  York.  He  was  risked  why  he  preached  against 
his  Majesty.  He  confessed  the  fact  and  justified  it  as  the  performance 
of  his  duty.  He  was  forgiven  and  permitted  to  return  home.  One 
day  old  Helmagh  Van  Houten  found  fault  with  the  political  com- 
plexion of  his  sermon.  The  dominie  replied,  Lord  Howe  has  forgiven 
me;  can't  you?"  Undoubtedly  Helmigh'  is  referred  to,  but  he  was 
only  fifty-five  years  of  age  at  the  close  of  the  war. 

On  August  10,  1807,  Mindert  Garrabrants,  Jr.  (41),  "executed  to 
John  Van  Houten  the  lather  and  Helmah  Van  Houten  the  brother  of 
his  wife  a  conveyance  in  fee  simple  of  all  his  real  estate,  including  a  tract 
of  about  fifty  acres  at  Slonger, "  in  trust  for  certain  purposes.  John6  and 
Helmah  (Helmigh6),  the  trustees,  "died  in  the  lifetime  of  the  cestui  qui 
trusts,  and  John  H.  Van  Houten,  the  only  son  and  heir  at  law^  of 
Helmah  Van  Houten,  the  surviving  trustee,  made  a  conveyance  of  the 
trust  property  specified  in  the  deed  of  trust  to  the  two  daughters  of 
Mindert  Garrabrants  3rd  as  the  only  lawful  issue  of  the  said  Mindert  Garra- 
brants 2nd  living  at  his  death."  Out  of  these  and  other  facts  grew  the 
well-known  cases — Price  v.  Sisson,  2  Beas.  (13  N.  J.  Eq.),  16S,  from 
which  I  have  quoted,  and  Weehawken  Ferry  Co.  v.  Sisson,  2  C.  E.  Gr. 
(17  N.  J.  Eq.),  475- 

I  have  not  traced  the  ancestry  of  Sarah  Van  Houten,  wife  of  George 
Tise,  back  to  Roelof ',  but  the  names  of  her  father  and  grandfather  seem 
to  indicate  descent  from  Pieter  Helmigse3,  the  only  Van  Houten  of  the 
third  generation  who  bore  that  Christian  name.  Three  of  her  children 
married  Bergen  Van  Houtens  ;  viz.,  (1)  Richard  Tise,  as  shown  above  ; 
(2)  Martin  Tise  married  Nancy7  Van  Ripen  (111)  (Geertje6  Van  Houten, 
Johannis'1',  JohanrnV,  Johannis  Helmigse3,  Helmigh  Roelofse2,  Roelof1);

Leah"  Van  Wagenen,  Johannis*  Van  Wagenen,  Helmigh4  Van  Wagenen, 
Catlyntje  Helmigse,3  Helmigh  Roelofse2  Van  Houten,  Roelof1). 

Helmigh4,  his  wife,  his  son  John  H.6,  daughter  Jenneke5  (born  1762), 
grandson  Helmigh6  Van  Houte,  granddaughter  Catharine6,  wife  of  Jacob 
Zabriskie,  and  great-grandson  John  H.7  (born  1803)  are  buried  in  a 
single  row  of  graves  immediately  adjoining,  on  the  north,  the  old  Bergen 
Church  site.  Rachel  (DeMaree),  widow  of  John  H.°,  their  daughter 
Aegie"  Lyon,  and  Catharine  (Van  Ripen),  widow  of  Jacob  Zabriskie,  are 
interred  in  the  main  cemetery  on  the  east  side  of  Bergen  Avenue.  The 
tombstone  inscriptions,  all  perfectly  legible,  are  my  authority  for  many 
dates. 

Mr.  Winfield's  etymology  of  the  name  "  Van  Houten  "  is  worthy  of 
Diedrich  Knickerbocker,  and,  as  a  descendant  of  Helmigh  Roelofse,  I 
must  respectfully  protest  against  it.  It  is  true  that  "  hout  "  means  wood, 
but  a  glance  at  a  Dutch  dictionary  shows  that  it  also  means  a  wood,  in 
the  sense  of  a  collection  of  trees.  Van  Houten  is  thus  equivalent  to  the 
French  "  Du  Bois"and  the  English  names  "Wood"  and,  more  exactly, 
"Atwood."  Anthony  a  Wood,  the  historian  of  Oxford,  who  is  aptly 
quoted  on  the  title  page  of  the  "  Land  Titles  "  as  to  the  difficulty  of  such 
a  work,*  exemplifies,  in  his  name,  the  English  form.  I  am  not  a  Dutch 
scholar,  and  cannot  explain  the  endings  "e  "  and  "  en  "  added  to  "  hout,  " 
but  exactness  on  such  a  point  is  not  to  be  looked  for  in  surnames.  The 
lack  of  the  definite  article  is  no  more  remarkable  than  in  "  Atwood  "  or 
"a  Wood,"  or  in  numerous  Dutch  names,  as  "Van  Dyck  "  and  "Van 
Zandt." 

It  is  well  known  that  the  immigrant  ancestors  frequently  took  their 
surnames  from  their  former  homes  in  Holland,  the  prefix  "  van  "  signify- 
ing "  from  "  or  "of."  In  that  country  the  patronymic,  changing  with 
each  generation,  survived  much  longer  than  with  the  English  race,  with 
whom  they  came  in  contact  in  the  New  World,  and  whose  system  of  fixed 
family  names  they  adopted. f  In  Lancashire  there  is  a  village  called 
simply  "Wood,"  from  which,  doubtless,  some  English  families  have 
derived  that  surname.  Is  it  not  probable  that  the  children  of  Roelof 
emigrated  from  a  similarly  named  hamlet,  Hout  or  Houte,  in  the  Nether- 
lands,  perhaps  unknown  to  the  gazetteer? 

*  "  A  painfull  work  it  is,  I'll  assure  you,  and  more  than  difficult,  wherein  what 
toyle  hath  been  taken,  and  as  no  man  thinkelh  so  no  man  believelh,  but  he  hath 
made  the  triall." 

\  Hereditary  surnames  derived  from  places  were  coming  into  general  use  in  Hol- 
land about  the  same  time.  A  recent  writer  in  the  "  Outlook  "  (January  25,  1S96, 
p.  146),  in  an  article  on  "  the  greater  of  Northern  painters,"  who  died  in  1669,  says 
that  his  "name  was  Rembrandt  Harmenszoon  (shortened  later  [to  Harmensz]  ; 
'  zoon  '  meant  the  son  of  Harmen)  Van  Kijn  (because  he  lived  on  the  banks  of  the 
Rhine.)"  Since  writing  the  text  I  have  found  that  Dr.  Cole,  in  his  genealogy, 
assumes  that  Van  Houten  is  a  place  name.

THE   DU   BOIS  FAMILY  OF  ULSTER   COUNTY,  NEW  YORK. 


By  Holdridge  Ozro  Collins,  of  Los  Angeles,  California. 


(Continued  from  Vol.  XXVII.,  p.  194,  of  The  Record.) 

Louis  Du  Bois  remained  in  New  Paltz  during  the  first  ten  years  of  its 
existence,  returning  to  Kingston  with  his  wife  in  1686,  where  he  pur- 
chased a  residence  on  what  is  now  the  northwest  corner  of  East  Front  and 
John  Streets,  and  here,  surrounded  by  old  neighbors  and  friends,  he 
passed  the  closing  years  of  his  life.  He  died  in  June,  1696,  his  last  will 
being  dated  on  the  23d  of  that  month.  He  left  a  considerable  estate, 
which  he  divided  equally  among  his  children  after  making  a  liberal  pro- 
vision for  his  widow,  who  survived  him  ten  years.  From  the  time  of  his 
arrival  in  Esopus  to  his  death,  Louis  Du  Bois  was  the  chief  of  the 
Huguenot  settlers,  in  all  their  trials  they  looked  to  him  as  their  adviser 
and  head,  and  among  them  his  word  was  law.  During  his  residence  at 
Hurley  he  was  an  overseer  and  a  justice  of  the  peace,  and  he,  with  Cor- 
nelis  Barents  Slecht  and  Albert  Hermans  Roosa,  was  prominent  in  the 
"mutiny  at  Esopus  "  against  the  tyranny  of  Captain  Brodhead,  which 
resulted  in  the  suspension  of  that  doughty  warrior  from  his  command. 

The  descendants  of  Louis  Du  Bois  far  outnumber  those  of  Jacques, 
as  he  left  seven  sons  to  perpetuate  his  name,  while  Jacques  had  but 
three,  and  only  two  of  those  are  known  with  certainty  to  have  been  mar- 
ried. The  names  and  fortunes  of  those  families  are  inseparably  welded 
with  the  making  of  New  York,  and  no  history  of  that  commonwealth 
can  be  complete,  that  omits  mention  of  the  early  influences  for  piety, 
industry,  and  valor,  and  the  later  sacrifices  on  the  altar  of  patriotism,  of 
ouis  and  Jacques  Du  Bois  and  their  descendants. 

Louis  Du  Bois  and  Catharine  Blanchan,  his  wife,  had  the  following 
children  : 

2.  i.   Abraham",  born  at   Mannheim,  in   the   Palatinate,    Decem- 

ber 26,  1657  ;  married  at  Kingston,  March  6,  1681,  Mar- 
griet,  the  youngest  of  the  five  children  of  Christian  Deyo. 

3.  ii.   Isaac,  born  Mannheim,  1659;  married  at  Kingston  in  June, 

1683,  Maria  Hasbrouck.      He  settled  at   New  Paltz,  and 
died  June  28,  1690.

I A  The  Du  Bois  Family  of  Ulster  County,  New  York,      [January, 

2.  Abraham2  Du  Bois  was  not  quite  three  years  old  when  he  came  to 
New  Netherland  with  his  father,  and  but  five  years  and  six  months  of  age 
when  he  was  carried  into  captivity  with  his  mother  and  brothers  Isaac 
and  Jacob  by  the  Esopus  Indians.  He  was  one  of  the  grantees  in  the 
Indian  deed  of  New  Paltz,  although  at  that  time  but  twenty  years  old, 
and  he  was  the  last  survivor  of  the  famous  Twelve,  "  men  whose  names 
live  in  the  annals  of  their  adopted  country." 

It  appears  that  he  participated  in  the  second  military  expedition 
against  the  French  in  Canada  during  the  year  1 7 1 7.  In  Volume  LX.,  at 
page  188,  of  the  New  York  Colonial  Manuscripts,  English,  is  found  an 
account  in  his  favor  against  the  Colony  of  New  York  for  losses  sustained 
by  him  during  that  campaign,  as  follows  :

In  his  later  years  he  lived  the  quiet,  uneventful  life  of  a  farmer,  his 
home  being  in  New  Paltz,  where  he  died  on  October  7,  1 73 1 .  His 
tombstone  in  the  graveyard  of  the  old  church  at  New  Paltz  bears  the  fol- 
lowing inscription  :

the  retreat  of  General  Washington's  army  after  crossing  the  Delaware 
River,  by  discovering  a  sunken  boat  and  destroying  it.  He  drove  the 
post-coach  from  New  York  to  Philadelphia,  and  at  the  outbreak  of  the  war

A  PARTIAL  RECORD  OF  THE  LANDONS  OF  SOUTHOLD. 

By  Lucy  Dubois  Akerly,  a  Landon  Descendant. 


1.  Nathan1  Landon  of  Southold,  Suffolk  Co.,  N.  Y.,  the  progenitor  of 
the  family  of  which  this  article  treats,  was  born,  1664,  in  Herefordshire, 
England,  near  the  Welsh  border  ;  he  sailed  from  Liverpool  for  Boston, 
Mass.,  tradition  says,  aged  15.    .He  soon  found  his  way  to  Southold,  where 

he  settled;  he  married,  about  1692-5,  Hannah  ,  who  died  aged  30 

years  with  one  of  her  children,  January  26,  1701.  (The  printed  Town 
Records  call  her  Mary,  but  Liber  E,  in  MSS.,  the  Landon  Bible,  and 
the  Salmon  Record,  all  call  her  Hannah.)  Nathan  died  March  9,  1718  ; 
his  original  tombstone  is  at  Southold.     Children  all  born  there. 

i.    Elizabeth2,  probably  the  eldest,  born  before  169S,  died  April 

28,  1707-S. 
ii.  Nathan,  Jr.,  oldest  son,  born  September  14,  1696  ;  married, 
September  19,  1723,  Prudence  Osman.  who  died  April  18, 
1768  ;  owned  land  at  Southold  ;  died  September  2S,  1750. 
(Eliza,  born  June  12,  1710,  is  said  by  Griffin,  her  descend- 
ant, in  his  "Journal,"  to  be  daughter  of  Nathan,  jr.;  she 
married,  about  1732,  Samuel  Griffin  ;  Peter  Griffin,  one  of 
their  13  children,  died  in  the  Old  Jersey  Prison  Ship.) 
iii.  James,  second  son,  born  before  1698,  is  probably  the  one 
who  married,  May,  1707,  Mary  Vaile,  who  died  August  20, 
1722;  married,  second,  Widow  Mary  Wilmot.  He  settled 
in   Litchfield,  Conn.  ;  freeman,    1737  ;  died  September  19,

2.  Samuel2  (Nathan1)  married,  May  26,  1721,  BETHIA4,  daughter  of 
Henry3  and  Bethia3  (Horton)  Tuthill  of  Southold,  born  December  12, 
1703,  died  August  30,  1761  ;  married,  second,  May  19,  1762,  Mary6 
Youngs  (Joshua4,  grandson  of  Colonel  John2)  ;  she  died  without  issue, 
April  22,  1809,  aged  96.  He  was  justice  of  the  peace  many  years  ;  judge 
in  Suffolk  County,  1764-1775,  and  "wielded  a  strong  influence  in  the 
courts  and  conventions,  and  was  a  leader  in  all  town  matters  for  talent, 
competency,  and  standing.  The  town  has  never  produced  another  such 
trio  from  one  family  as  Samuel,  Jared,  and  Henry  Landon  "  (I.  W.  C. ). 
Samuel  died  January  21,  1782,  probably  at  Guilford,  Conn.,  where  his 
will  was  proved,  and  where  the  family  had  taken  refuge  in  the  Revolu- 
tion. Samuel  and  Bethia  are  buried  at  Southold.  (Moore's  Indexes  in 
one  place  call  Samuel's  wife  Rachel.  Doubtless  an  error  of  type,  as  the 
will  of  her  father,  Henry  Tuthill.  cited  as  authority,  does  not  contain 
the  word  Rachel,  but  mentions  "My  beloved  daughter  BETHIA,  wife 
of  Sam1.  Landon,  Esq.,"  L.  17,  page  118,  New  York  City  Wills.)  Chil-

BEEKMAN    FAMILY    OF    NEW    JERSEY 


By  George  C.  Beekman. 


I  HAVE  copied  the  entries  in  the  old  Dutch  Bible,  word  for  word, 
concerning  the  children  of  Martin  Beeckman,  born  1685,  died  October 

27,  1757- 

The  Dutch  used  is  not  correct,  but  it  must  be  remembered  that  this 
was  the  second  or  third  generation  from  the  original  emigrant  from 
Holland,  that  their  Dutch  was  picked  up  from  family  intercourse  and 


1 897. ]  Beekman  Family  0/  New  Jersey.  :r 

not  from  schools,  and  that  constant  association  with  English,  French, 
and  Indians  had  further  corrupted  it.  I  think  it  best  to  give  it  just  as  it 
appears. 

The  decendants  of  the  three  sons  of  Martin  and  Elizabeth  (Waldron) 
Beeckman — viz.:  Hendrick,  Samuel,  and  John — are  to-day  numerous  not 
only  in  New  Jersey  but  also  in  New  York,  Ohio,  Indiana,  Illinois,  Michi- 
gan, Oregon,  and  elsewhere.  The  New  York  Genealogical  and 
Biographical  Record,  July,  1885,  gives  a  complete  account  of  the 
family  of  Samuel,  born  November  26,  1729.  Below  is  the  family  of 
Hendrick,  born  March  24,  1727. 

Mr.  Gansevoort  I.  Allen,  who  resides  at  Bath,  Steuben  County,  N.  Y.,. 
is  compiling  the  descendants  of  the  third  brother,  Johann,  born  Novem- 
ber 5,  1741. 

I  also  add  the  substance  of  the  last  will  of  Gerardus  Beekman,  who 
died  in  Monmouth  County,  N.  J.,  in  1823.  This  will  help  to  distinguish 
between  the  descendants  of  Martin  Beeckman,  who  came  to  America 
in  1638  and  settled  near  Albany,  N.  Y.,  and  the  descendants  of  William 
Beeckman,  who  came  to  America  in  1647,  and  settled  in  the  city  of  New 
York.  Christopher,  a  grandson  of  the  latter,  married  Maria  Delanoy 
and  settled  in  Somerset  County,  N.  J.  He  died  in  1723,  leaving  a  will 
which  is  recorded  in  the  office  of  the  Secretary  of  State  at  Trenton, 
Gerardus,  named  above,  was  a  grandson  of  this  Christopher,  and  not 
related  by  blood  to  the  family  of  Martin  Beeckman. 

A  true  copy  of  entries  on  one  of  the  pages  of  a  Dutch  Bible,  printed 
at  Leyden,  Holland,  in  1663,  and  still  (1896)  in  possession  of  the 
family  : 

"Anno  1724  den  21  Juny,  dan  is  Elizabet  Waldron  myn  vrow  =  de 
dochter  van  Samuel  Waldron  " 

"Anno  1725  den  30  Agust  is  geboren  Elizabet

"  Januay  26   1796  died    Hendrick  Beekman  in   his  69  year  till   24 
March  " 

Note  (1). — When  important  papers  were  signed,  or  the  Dutch  lan- 
guage used,  the  name  was  written  "  Beeckman  "  in  the  old  German  way  ; 
but  when  the  English  language  was  used  the  "  c  "  was  frequently  left 
out,  as  it  had  no  sound  or  meaning  in  that  language. 

Note  (2). — This  Hendrick,  a  brother  of  Marten, was  born  June  5,  1692, 
and  died  unmarried.  He  left  a  will,  admitted  to  probate  January  15, 
1770,  and  recorded  in  Secretary  of  State's  office  at  Trenton,  N.  J.,  in 
Book  K  of  wills,  pages  148,  etc.

Samuel  E.  Wells,  of  Albany,  writes  :  "  An  old  graveyard,  about  forty 
miles  from  Albany,  is  likely  to  be  sold  soon  and  cut  up  into  building 
lots,  and  its  records  lost.  It  was  started  about  1770,  and  no  burials  in 
it  since  1870.  Many  French  and  Indian  and  Revolutionary  heroes  lie 
here.  With  the  exception  of  very  few,  the  inscriptions  on  the  stones  can 
now  be  deciphered  ;  but  the  yard  is  taken  no  care  of,  and  whether  they 
dig  it  up  or  not,  soon  many  of  the  inscriptions  will  be  obliterated  forever. 
The  yard  is  about  one  hundred  yards  on  each  side,  and  thickly  filled."

St.  John's  Cemetery,  New  York,  to  be  a  Park. — The  New  York  World  of 
November  16,  1896,  has  the  following  : 

"  Yesterday  was  the  Inst  day  for  removing  the  dead  from  the  old  St.  John's  Ceme- 
tery at  Hudson  and  Clarkson  streets.  The  land  has  been  purchased  by  the  city  for  a 
park.     Only  twenty-seven  disinterments  have  been  made. 

"Although  work  on  the  park  nominally  begins  to-day,  permission  will  be  granted 
for  the  removal  of  the  dead  till  the  work  actually  begins,  probably  next  spring. 

"  The  old  St.  John's  Cemetery  occupies  nearly  one  acre  of  land,  and  it  is  believed 
that  more  than  10,000  bodies  have  been  buried  there.  It  is  forty  years  now  since  a 
burial  has  taken  place  there. 

"  Some  of  the  stones  bear  the  date  of  1730,  but  the  names  are  illegible.  Weeds  and 
bushes  now  grow  throughout  the  cemetery.  In  one  corner  long  rows  of  crumbling 
stones  mark  the  victims  to  the  terrible  cholera  plague  between  the  years  1S02  and 
1805. 

"  A  quaint  old  tablet  bears  the  name  of  John  Ferdinand  Baron  Castelrolti,  who 
died  in  1833.  Another  stone  bears  the  inscription,  "John  Black,  died  in  1803." 
Black  was  a  famous  bookseller  here  one  hundred  years  ago.      Here  the  bodies  of  the

The  Lion  Gardiner  Tomb. — The  tomb  of  Lion  Gardiner  was  marked  origi- 
ally  by  a  simple  cedar  rail  supported  by  two  low  posts  of  the  same  wood.  In  18S6, 
when  the  monument  of  which  a  sketch  is  given  in  the  present  number  of  The  Record 
was  erected,  the  skeleton  was  found  intact,  the  hair  being  in  a  good  state  of  preserva-

tion  ;  a  piece  was  cut  off  and  divided  between  Mrs.  Sarah  Diodati  Thompson  and 
Mrs.  John  Alexander  Tyler.  The  body  was  found  in  the  same  position  as  that  of 
Rev.  Thomas  James,  the  first  minister  ;  i.e.,  facing  the  other  graves.  However,  by 
an  error  the  effigy  was  placed  with  the  head  in  the  wrong  direction.  In  old  English 
churchyards  the  most  ancient  graves  were  marked  with  cedar  posts  and  a  rail  of  ex- 
actly the  same  kind,  and  several  can  still  be  seen  on  the  Isle  of  Wight.  The  present 
monument  is  constructed  of  Westerly  granite,  a  stone  of  fine  grain  and  lasting  qual- 
ities, and  is  probably  the  only  one  of  its  kind  in  this  country.  A  recumbent  figure 
represents  the  sturdy  old  warrior  clad  in  the  military  garb  of  his  day,  with  the  visor  of 
his  helmet  closed.  A  roof  supported  by  eight  pillars  serves  to  protect  the  effigy  from 
the  action  of  the  elements,  and  the  base  upon  which  the  figure  re>ts  has  on  its  four 
sides,  cut  in  old-fashioned  letters,  the  following  sketch  of  Lion  Gardiner's  life  as 
soldier  and  citizen  : 

'An  officer  of  ye  English  Army  and  an  Engineer  &  Master  of  Works  of  Forti- 
fications in  ye  Leaguers  of  ye  Prince  of  Grange  in  ye  Low  Countries.  In  1635  he

"  After  completing  this  term  of  service  he  removed  in  1639  to  his  Island  of  which 
he  was  sole  Owner  and  Ruler.  Born  in  1599,  he  died  in  this  Towne  in  1663  ven- 
erated &  honoured. 

"  Under  many  trying  cir- 
cumstances in  Peace  &  War  he 
was  Brave,  Discreet  &  True." 
This  monument  is  a  beauti- 
ful and  enduring  memorial  of 
one  of  the  finest  characters  of 
our  early  history.  It  is  the 
conception  of  the  late  James 
Renwick,  architect  of  St.  Pat- 
rick's Cathedral  and  Grace 
Church,  New  York,  besides 
many  other  important  ecclesi- 
astical edifices.  It  was  erected 
at  the  expense  of  Mis.  Sarah 
Diodati  Thompson,  daughter 
of  the  seventh  Lord  of  the 
Manor,  and  of  Mrs.  Mary 
Thompson  Gardiner,  widow 
of  Samuel  Buel  Gardiner,  the 
tenth  Lord.

Judge  Clearwater  sends  the  following  two  notes  from  the  Kingston  (X.  Y.) 
Daily  Freeman  : 

"  Swaen'ENBURGH  RECORDS. — Judge  Clearwater  has  received  from  Mr.  Dederick 
Versteig,  who  is  translating  the  old  Dutch  records  of  this  county,  a  synopsis  of 
Volume  IV.,  which  covers  the  period  from  November  9,  1673,  to  October  17,  1765, 
embracing  the  time  from  the  surrender  by  Great  Britain  of  her  sovereignty  of  the 
colony  of  New  York  to  the  States-General  of  the  Netherlands  to  the  termination  of 
the  period  of  Datch  supremacy  by  the  recession  of  the  colony  by  the  Prince  of 
Orange  and  the  States-General  of  Holland  to  the  Duke  of  York.  So  disiasteful  was 
the  English  domination  to  the  old  Dutch  burghers  of  Esopus  that  when  the  royal 
standard  of  England  was  hauled  down  and  the  standard  of  the  Stales-General  run  up 
on  the  mast  at  the  block-house,  the  Court  of  Scheppens  changed  the  name  of  the 
settlement  from  Wiltwyck  to  Swaenenburgh,  and  it  was  known  as  Swaenenburgh 
until  it  passed  with  the  rest  of  the  colony  under  the  control  of  the  Duke  of  York. 

"  It  is  amusing  to  note  from  the  records  of  this  period  that  the  Scheppens  were  then 
troubled  with  precisely  the  same  question  which  occupies  so  much  of  the  time  of 
their  successors,  the  present  common  council  ;  namely,  poor  roads  and  dirty  streets. 
The  road  referred  to  in  the  minutes  of  the  court  is  a  portion  of  the  historic  thorough- 
fare leading  from  Kingston  to  Hurley,  although  it  seems  to  have  been  in  better  con- 
dition then  than  it  is  to-day.  The  question  of  keeping  the  streets  clean  within  the  ■ 
fortifications  was  settled  by  compelling  every  householder  to  clean  the  street  in  front 
of  his  own  premises." 

"A  Kingston  Church. — The  First  Dutch  Church  of  Kingston,  which  was  founded 
nearly  two  centuries  and  a  half  ago,  by  the  ancient  Dutch  settlers  of  Esopus,  is 
becoming  one  of  the  great  memorial  churches  of  the  time,  renewed  interest  being 
taken  in  it  by  the  descendants  of  early  Kingstonians,  who  are  scattered  all  over  the 
United  States.  The  church  contains  the  magnificent  Houghtaling  memorial  window, 
which  is  said  to  be  the  finest  and  most  expensive  stained-glass  window  in  this  country, 
and  which  is  annually  visited  by  hundreds  of  people  who  have  read  about  it  in  the 
Freeman  and  its  exchanges.  It  also  contains  a  beautiful  memorial  tablet  to  the 
■memory  of  the  Hon.  Abram  Bruyn  Hasbrouck,  formerly  president  of  Rutgers  Col- 
lege, which  is  modelled  after  the  entrance  to  a  Greek  temple  ;  and  also  rhe  memorial 
to  the  memory  of  the  Rev.  John  C.  F.  Hoes,  D.D. ,  who  was  the  pastor  of  the  church 
for  about  a  quarter  of  a  century,  and  which  is  in  the  form  of  a  marble  Roman  arch. 
Also  a  tablet  containing  the  names  of  the  ministers  of  the  church  from  1660  to  the 
present  day.     There  is  let  into  the  front  wall  of  the  church  two  stones  containing 


60  Queries.  [January, 

inscriptions  in  Dutch,  which  formerly  occupied  the  same  position  in  the  old  Dutch, 
church  in  the  city  of  New  York  a  hundred  and  fifty  years  ago.  At  the  corner  of 
Wall  and  Main  streets  is  the  cenotaph  to  the  memory  of  the  Rev.  John  Gosman,  D.D., 
one  of  the  most  eminent  divines  of  the  Dutch  denomination,  who  was  pastor  of  the 
church  for  many  years.  All  of  these,  with  General  Sharpe's  recent  gift  immortalizing 
the  services  of  the  One  Hundred  and  Twentieth  Regiment  in  the  war  of  the  Rebellion, 
give  our  old  Dutch  church  a  unique  distinction  among  the  churches  of  the  nation." 

Van  Kessler-Crave.w — The  following  certificate,  two  hundred  years  old,  was 
found  among  some  old  papers,  and  is  contributed  by  C.  T.  R.  M.,  of  Croton-on- 
Hudson.  It  is  endorsed  on  back:  "  Marriage  Certificate  of  Jan  Van  Kessler  and 
EmiUche  Craven  by  Justice  Isaac  Whitehead,  1696,  July,  the  13  day."  It  reads  : 
"  This  may  signifie  to  all  persons  to  whom  these  presents  shall  come  that  Jan  Van  Kes- 
sler and  Emittche  Craven  both  of  ye  towne  of  Bergen  in  ye  County  of  Bergin  and 
province  of  East  Jersey  ware  lawfully  joyned  together  in  mattremony  according  to 
the  usiall  form  this  thirteenth  day  of  July  1696  by  me,    Isaac  Whitehead,  Justice." 

Correction. — Theodore  M.  Banta,  Esq.,  has  kindly  called  the  attention  of  the 
editor  to  mistakes  made  by  him  in  preparing  the  index  for  the  last  volume.  He 
gladly  acknowledges  his  mistake,  pleading  lack  of  funds  as  his  only  excuse  for 
attempting  to  do  it  alone.     Mr.  Banta  says  : 

"  In  looking  over  the  index  to  the  last  volume  of  The  Record,  I  notice  errors 
which  prompt  me  to  suggest  that  it  would  be  well  to  have  some  one  who  understands 
Dutch  to  whom  to  refer  the  names  which  appear  in  the  baptismal  records  of  the 
Dutch  Church  now  publishing. 

"  For  example,  on  p.  134  is  the  baptism  of  a  child  of  Somerset  Knegt  v.  Ths.. 
V.   Wyck  and  Sara  Ryt,  meid  v.  Abrm.  Van  Wy'ck. 

"  The  witnesses  were  Jan  Herres  Knegt  v.  de  Wed.  Van  Rutgers  and  '  Demoe- 
derszelf.'  In  the  index  two  of  these  names  appear  under  '  Knegt '  and  another 
under  '  Demoederszelf,'  whereas  'Knegt'  is  Dutch  for  a  'man-servant,'  and  the 
last  supposed  witness  is  '  the  mother  herself.'  A  translation  of  the  entry  would  be  :. 
Somerset,  man-servant  of  Thomas  Van  Wy'ck,  and  Sara  Ryt,  maid-servant  of 
Abraham  Van  Wyck.  Witnesses:  Jan  Herres,  man-servant  of  the  widow  Rutgers, 
and  the  mother  herself." 

"  I  notice  a  similar  error,  in  indexing  item  on  p.  75,  as  '  De  Moeder,  Maria 
Storms,'  under  D's,  the  entry  really  being,  '  The  mother,  Maria  Storms.' 

"  Possibly  these  two  errors  are  the  only  ones  in  the  index.  I  chanced  to  notice 
them  as  I  was  looking  for  other  names.  Please  pardon  my  presumption  in  notifying 
you.  I  think  it  would  add  to  the  value  of  the  records  if  translation  of  these  Dutch 
words  appeared  at  the  foot  of  the  several  pages,  and  I  can  have  these  done  for  you 
without  expense.  Yours  truly, 

"Theodore  M.  Banta."

Way. — Henry  Cook,  son  of  Jesse  and  Mary  (Wievman)  Cook,  was  born  2d 
mo.,  29,  1768,  in  Warrington  Township,  York  County,  Pa.,  and  died  4th  mo., 
g,  1835,  at  the  same  place.  In  1796  Warrington  Monthly  of  Friends,  York  County, 
Pa.,  complained  of  him  for  marriage  by  a  "hireling  minister."  He  married  Mary 
Way,  who,  tradition  says,  came  from  Ontario  County,  N.  Y.  She  was  born  7th 
mo.,  16,  1769,  died  3d  mo.,  16,  1836,  and  is  buried  beside  her  husband  in  War-

birth  ?  ALBERT  cook  MYERS,  Swarthmore  College,  Pa. 

Malcom. — The  late  Rev.  Howard  Malcom,  D.D.,  was  the  son  of  John  James 
Malcom.  He  was  the  son  of  John  Malcom  and  Hannah  Roberts  (granddaughter  of 
Hugh  Roberts,  who  was  one  of  Wm.  Penn's  Council).  These  were  married  in 
"  St.  Michael's  and  Zion  Church,"  Philadelphia,  in  1772.  Who  was  John  Malcom's 
father?  A  vague  family  tradition  holds  that  he  was  a  sea  captain  during  the  Revo- 
lution and  was  lost  at  sea.  Any  information  on  this  line  will  be  gratefully  acknowl-

OBITUARY. 


Clarke. — Mr.  Bayard  Clarke  died  in  New  York  City,  September  23,  1S96,  aged 
forty-seven. 

Mr.  Clarke  was  the  only  son  of  the  late  Col.  Bayard  Clarke,  and  came  of  an  old 
New  York  family,  allied  to  those  of  Lawrence,  Moore,  Remsen,  Woodhull,  and 
others.  Mr.  Clarke  was  educated  for  the  profession  of  civil  engineer,  but  practised 
•only  a  short  time. 

For  several  years  past  he  had  been  in  failing  health,  and  remained  at  his  country 
home,  "  Isola  Bella,"  an  island  in  Schroon  Lake  in  the  Adirondacks.  Mr.  Clarke  was 
a  life  member  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society,  and  in  1884 
one  of  its  officers.  He  was  also  a  member  of  the  Saint  Nicholas  Club  and  the  City 
Club.  He  was  well  known  in  New  York  Society,  and  his  death  will  be  deeply 
regretted  by  his  many  friends,  to  whom  he  had  endeared  himself  by  his  genial  tem- 
perament and  unvarying  courtesy.  r.   k. 


BOOK  NOTICES. 


The  Streeter  Genealogy.  The  title  page  fully  indicates  the  character  of  the 
work,  a  genealogical  history  of  the  descendants  of  Slephen  and  Ursula  Streeter  of 
Gloucester,  Mass.,  1642;  afterwards  of  Charlestown,  Mass.,  1644-1652.  With  an 
account  of  the  Streeters  of  Goudherst,  Kent,  England. 

The  author  is  Mr.  Milford  B.  Streeter,  Brooklyn,  N,  Y.,  and  the  result  of  his 
labor  is  an  octavo  volume  in  cloth  of  323  pages.  The  typographical  appearance  of  the 
work  is  pleasing,  its  plan  well  conceived,  and  its  information  readily  accessible.  An 
introductory  monograph  on  the  Streeters  of  Goudherst,  Kent,  England,  by  Eben 
Putnam,  is  exceedingly  interesting,  and  evinces,  as  does  the  whole  work,  patient, 
careful,  painstaking  research  and  investigation.  It  is  thoroughly  indexed,  both  as  to 
names  and  places,  and  is  a  desirable  acquisition  to  genealogical  literature.  Fuller 
historical  data  in  relation  to  those  whose  names  it  records,  noting  their  occupation 
or  giving  some  clue  to  the  character  of  their  lives,  would  have  increased  its  value. 
History,  biography,  and  genealogy,  skilfully  interwoven,  form  the  ideal  family  record.

A  Peters  Lineage.  Five  Generations  of  the  Descendants  of  Dr.  Charles 
Peters  of  Hempstead.     Compiled  by  Martha  Bockee  Flint.     8vo,  cloth,  164  pp. 

This  work  is  published,  according  to  the  compiler's  declaration,  as  "  a  preliminary 
study,"  with  the  hope  that  the  record  may  "  be  perfected  through  the  sympathetic  co- 
operation of  every  branch  of  the  family."  It  nevertheless  contains  a  vast  amount  of 
information,  and  apparently  gives  a  faithful  record  of  the  Peters  generations.  The 
-arrangement  is  complicated,  the  generally  received  system  of  genealogical  notation 
,is  ignored,  and  the  index  is  partial,  containing  the  names  of  only  four  generations.

The  omission  of  the  title  on  the  back  of  the  book  is  also  to  be  deplored.  When  the 
book  is  on  the  library  shelf  no  one  knows  what  it  is.  It  would  be  well  if  those  who 
are  preparing  family  histories  would  avail  themselves  of  the  experience  of  the  past, 
that  the  result  of  their  labors  might  be  presented  to  the  public  in  the  orderly  manner 
which  patient  study  has  evolved  as  the  most  desirable.  t.  \v.  W.

This  should  forever  stop  the  idle  tales  and  expectations  of  fortune  hunters,  who 
have  built  castles  for  themselves  and  others,  which  have  been  to  many  a  snare  and 
delusion.  The  book  is  interesting,  aside  from  the  establishment  of  the  title  of  the 
church  and  the  quieting  of  the  class  above  referred  to  and  those  who  have  made  a 
business  of  keeping  alive  the  claim.  It  also  clears  up  the  confusion  of  old  Jans  farm, 
the  Annatje  Jans  or  Bogardus  farm,  and  the  Dominies  Hook  grant  to  Anneke  Bogar- 
dus, which  was  not  in  New  York  at  all,  but  on  Long  Island.  The  paper  and  press- 
work  are  good,  and  we  advise  all  interested  to  read  it.

There  are  no  books  which  surpass  class  histories  in  value,  for  while  histories  gen- 
erally deal  with  the  distinguished  and  omit  the  mass,  a  class  history  gives  the  life  of 
every  member,  including  parents  and  children,  and  thus  becomes  a  series  of  genealo- 
gies. The  interest  which  attaches  to  such  a  group  of  men,  educated  in  an  institution 
like  Yale,  is  widespread,  reaching  to  the  relations,  friends,  and  acquaintances  in  three 
generations.  There  is  a  fine  group  picture  by  Pach,  of  twenty-three  as  they  appeared 
at  the  reunion  in  1S94,  forty  years  after  graduation.  Among  the  class  is  Prof. 
Thomas  Egleston,  of  this  Society  ;  ex-Judge  Howland,  Governor  of  the  Mayflower 
Descendants;  Consul-General  Yung  Wing  ;  Thomas  G.  Ritch  and  his  partner  General 
Woodford  ;  President  Stevens  of  the  Sixth  National  Bank  ;  Rev.  Dr.  Erskine  N. 
White,  of  the  Church  Extension  Board,  and  manyequally  prominent.  One  hundred  and 
sixty-seven  were  connected  with  the  class  ;  just  100  graduated,  of  whom  50  have  died, 
and  37  of  the  non-graduates  also  are  dead.  Twenty-nine  were  in  the  Union  and  l& 
in  the  Confederate  service  ;  7  were  killed  in  battle  ;  5  died  in  service.  There  have 
been  100  wives  and  299 children;  67  of  the  latter  are  married.  These  figures  show  how 
wide  the  circle  becomes  in  a  lapse  of  two-score  years.  We  take  this  occasion  lo  say 
we  would  like  to  have  every  publication  issued  by  every  class  of  every  college  or 
institution  in  the  land.  In  our  library  they  will  be  valued  and  preserved.  Owing  to 
the  kindness  of  the  late  Chief  Justice  Richardson  of  the  Court  of  Claims,  and  Mr.  T. 
F.  Browne!],  we  have  a  good  number  of  Harvard  class  histories.  Let  every  member 
see  that  his  class  is  on  the  catalogue,  and  that  his  college  is  represented  by  all  its 
class  publications,  large  and  small.

then  56  pages  are  given  to  the  history  of  the  church,  including  the  pastorates  of 
Dr.  Milliken  and  Dr.  Welles;  then  the  roll  of  communicants  entire,  23  pages  ;  bap- 
tisms, 23;    marriages,  22  ;   and  a  double-column  index  of  23  pages. 

If  every  pastor  and  church  would  follow  this  example  how  much  would  be  saved  1 
Church  records  have  been  lost,  burned,  and  stolen  in  every  part  of  the  country  with- 
out exception,  and  the  only  method  of  preservation  that  we  know  is  duplicating 
through  the  press.  Ministers  have  been  known  to  carry  books  away  after  a  disagree- 
ment with  the  church  ;  records  have  been  destroyed  by  those  who  wished  to  put  an 
end  to  evidence,  for  their  own  purpose  ;  entries  have  been  cut  out  by  parties  who 
wished  to  have  the  evidence  for  some  occasion;  and  in  each  case  the  loss  to  others  fol- 
lows of  necessity,  and  perhaps  can  never  be  retrieved.  Hence  we  are  glad  to  hear  of 
every  book  of  this  kind,  and  we  want  them  all  in  our  library.  The  author  probably 
had  good  reasons  for  his  title  ;  he  was  filled  with  the  thought  of  one  pastor  and  one 
church,  and  he  did  not  give  a  thought  to  his  book  finding  itself  far  away  from  his 
■bastor  and  church,  upon  the  shelves  of  libraries,  where  it  would  have  been  more 
readily  introduced  by  such  a  backing  as  "  Dr.  Duryea  and  the  Reformed  Church  at 
Paterson." 

Autobiographical  Reminiscences  of  Rev.  Alvan  Bond,  D.D.  1793-1S82.

Alvan  Bond  and  Sarah  Richardson  his  wife,  with  Sketches  of  Ancestral  Early  Set-

printed,  1896.     Morocco,  -j\  x  Io£.     Pp.  189  +  12. 

This  elegant  work  of  art  from  the  Gilliss  press  is  a  treasure  few  can  secure,  as  only 
thirty-five  copies  were  printed.  Number  26  was  presented  to  the  New  York  Genea- 
logical and  Biographical  Society  by  the  gentleman  who  bore  the  expense  of  the 
memorial.  The  reminiscences  were  written  by  Dr.  Bond  in  1S77,  when  eighty-five 
years  of  age.  They  were  printed  as  they  were  left,  without  revision.  The  record  of 
his  ancestors  is  from  the  Genealogies  and  History  of  Watertown,  Mass.,  by  Henry 
Bond,  M.D.  The  author  of  that  early  and  still  valuable  book  was  a  third-cousin  of 
Rev.  Dr.  Bond.  His  work  will  live  and  continue  to  fill  an  important  place  among 
local  histories  and  genealogies  after  many  of  us  are  forgotten. 

The  two  charts  show  six  generations  of  the  ancestors  of  the  Doctor  and  Sarah 
Richardson  his  wife  ;  forty-three  of  the  lines  showing  seven  generations,  and  tracing 
more  than  that  number  to  the  early  emigrant  ancestor.  The  funeral  sermon  was  by 
Rev.  Dr.  W.  S.  Palmer.  There  is  a  letter  of  Rev.  Dr.  Cyrus  Hamlin  and  a  memorial 
address  by  Rev.  Timothy  Dwight,  D.D.,  LL.D.,  President  of  Yale  University. 

The  trans-Atlantic  ancestry  is  traced  to  Jonas  and  Rose  Bond  of  Bur)'  St. 
Edmunds,  Suffolk,  Eng.  He  died  in  1601.  Of  Dr.  Bond's  descendants  eight  chil- 
dren, seven  grandchildren  (one  of  whom  married  Mr.  Bowen  Whiting  Pierson,  a 
member  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society),  and  four  great- 
grandchildren are  shown. 

There  are  also  sketches  of  the  following  settlers,  to  wit. :  Bond,  who  came  to 
America  in  1630  ;  Biscoe,  1640  ;  Burton,  1637  ;  Coolidge,  1630  ;  Follett,  1655  ; 
Fuller,  1644  ;  Goldthwaite,  1630  ;  Gould,  1639  ;  Jackson,  1643  ;  King.  1635  ;  Lam- 
son,  1677;  Livermore,  1634;  Melendy,  1726;  Newgate,  1632;  Nichols,  163S  ; 
Osborn,  1672;  Ray,  1634;  Sibley,  16:9;  Tompkins,  1638;  Trask,  1627;  Waters, 
1636.  Nine  of  these  were  members  of  the  First  Church  of  Salem,  a  picture  of  which, 
in  1634,  is  given,  and  the  original  frame  of  which  is  preserved  in  the  Essex  Institute. 
The  Richardson  ancestral  sketches  are  equally  interesting,  including  Adams,  Barker, 
Bass,  Breck,  Clark,  Dyer,  Ellis,  Thomas  and  John  Frary,  Greenoway,  Herring, 
Hill,  Leland,  Lovell,  Morse,  Paine,  Penniman,  Pierce,  and  Wight.  There  are 
eighteen  beautiful  illustrations,  comprising  portraits  and  views,  the  latter  of  buildings 
and  places  in  Old  and  New  England.  The  volume  is  concluded  by  a  fac-simile 
reproduction  of  the  Genealogical  Register,  being  a  record  of  the  descendants  of  Col. 
William  Bond,  who  settled  in  Watertown,  Mass.,  a.D.  1649.  Boston  :  Printed  by 
Benjamin  F.  Bond,  1S26.  This  quaint  little  nine-page  antique  must  feel  strange  to 
be  resurrected  in  such  surroundings  of  paper,  binding,  and  engravings,  but  the  com- 
piler was  wise  enough  not  to  despise  the  day  of  small  things,  for  the  great  genealogi- 
cal crops  of  to-day  are  the  result  of  the  germs  the  fathers  planted  in  years  gone  by. 
It  is  an  evidence  of  the  advance  both  book-making  and  genealogy  have  made  in  sev- 
enty years,  when  we  turn  over  the  leaves  of  this  superb  book  and  stop  at  the  little 
reprint  in  the  back.  Some,  who  are  experiencing  the  difiScultyof  building  a  pedigree, 
when  they  see  this,  may  say,  l;  Oh  !  that  my  ancestor  had  written  a  book."

History  of  Danbury,  Conn.,  1684-1896.  From  notes  and  manuscript  left  by 
James  Montgomery  Bailey.  Compiled,  with  additions  by  Susan  Benedict  Hill. 
New  York  :  Burr  Printing  House,  1S96.     7  x  \o\,  sheep.     Pp.  583. 

This  first  history  of  the  growing  city  of  Danbury  is  full  of  facts  which  will  prove 
interesting  to  a  large  number  who  have  settled  in  or  emigrated  from  this  place.  It 
is  closely  connected  in  its  origin  with  Norwalk,  whence  the  founders,  Thomas  Taylor, 
Francis  Bushnell,  Thomas  Barnum,  John  Hoyt,  James  Benedict,  Samuel  Benedict, 
James  Beebe,  and  Judah  Gregory,  came.  They  were  soon  reinforced  by  Dr.  Samuel 
Wood  an  Englishman,  Josiah  Starr  from  Long  Island,  Joseph  Mygatt  from  Hart- 
ford, the  Knapps,  Wildmans,  and  Pickets.  Many  of  these  names  have  been  identified 
with  the  town  ever  since,  and  some  of  them  have  been  represented  and  influential  in 
New  York  ;  in  fact,  Danbury  is  on  the  border,  situated  near  the  line  of  this  State, 
between  the  Berkshires  and  the  Sound.  Some  fifty  pages  are  given  to  the  early  settle- 
ment, Thomas  Robbins'  Century  Sermon,  and  the  establishment  of  the  church.  Then 
as  much  more  is  occupied  with  Danbury  in  the  Revolution  and  its  burning  by  Tryon 
in  April,  1777. 

The  succeeding  matter  is  of  local  interest,  showing  its  families,  business,  pro- 
fessions, streets,  cemetery,  libraries,  charities,  banks,  societies,  taverns  and  hotels, 
fire  department,  and  water  supply.  Chapter  xxxviii.,  "  The  Civil  War,"  shows  where 
Danbury  stood  when  the  flag  was  assailed.  This  book  is  copiously  illustrated  with 
views  and  portraits.  There  are  also  many  tombstone  inscriptions,  which,  our  ex- 
perience tells  us,  are  valued  by  many  who  otherwise  never  know  the  facts  contained, 
perhaps  even  the  location  of  the  graves  of  their  ancestors  ;  these  facts  are  not  perma- 
nent until  printed,  and  therefore  he  is  a  benefactor  who  copies  the  inscription  on  a 
stone  which  to-morrow  may  be  lost  forever.  There  is  a  list  of  the  representatives  in 
the  State  Legislature,  after  which  follow  nine  pages  of  chronology  and  sixteen  pages 
of  index  in  double  column. 

The  book  is  sold  for  the  benefit  of  a  charity  in  which  the  author,  Mr.  Bailey,  was 
interested.  We  hope  they  will  reap  so  large  a  harvest  from  its  sale  that  Miss  Hill 
will  be  engaged  to  edit  a  second  volume  containing  the  genealogies  of  Danbury 
families.

a  house  with  which  are  connected  some  interesting  associations.  It  is 
the  old  Clark  homestead,  built  1708,  where  was  born  James  Clark,  the 
subject  of  this  sketch  ;  a  sturdy  patriot  in  "  those  days  which  tried  men's 
souls  "  ;  a  soldier  whose  name  deserves  more  than  passing  mention.* 
But  before  making  further  reference  to  his  military  career,  let  us  consider 
his  antecedents. 

1.  Daniel  Clark,  the  first  of  the  line  of  whom  there  is  distinct  informa- 
tion, came  as  a  young  man  to  this  country  from  England — though 
neither  the  ship  on  which  he  sailed  nor  the  date  of  his  arrival  is  known. 
He  was  one  ot  the  first  settlers  of  Windsor.  Conn.,  and  is  recorded  as  : 
"  Attorney-at-Law,  a  Gentleman  of  Distinction,  and  generally  in  Publick 
Office."  He  was  on  the  land  division  at  Hartford,  Conn.,  in  1639  ;  was 
Secretary  of  the  Colony  from  1658  to  1664,  and  again  in  1665-66.  For 
the  use  of  their  magistrates  the  town  of  Windsor  appropriated  a  particular 
pew  in  their  meeting-house,  and  in  addition  to  the  ordinary  finish  ordered 
it  wainscoted.  On  the  elevation  of  Daniel  Clark  to  the  magistracy  the 
town,  "inTowne  Meeting  assembled,"  passed  the  following  vote  :  "  May 
5,  1651  :  At  a  Meetinge  of  ye  Towne  Mr.  Clark  was  appointed  to  sitt  in 
ye  Greate  Pewe."  He  was  twice  married — first  to  Mary,  daughter  of 
Thomas  Newberry,  of  Dorchester  ;  second,  to  Martha,  widow  of  Simon 
Wolcott,  of  Windsor.  He  died  August  12,  171c,  in  the  eighty-eighth 
year  of  his  age.  By  his  first  wife,  Mary  Newberry,  he  had  ten  children, 
of  whom  Daniel  was  the  fourth. 

2.  Daniel2  Clark  went  from  Windsor  to  Hartford,  removing  to  Lebanon, 
and  after  1710  was  of  Colchester,  Conn.      He  married  Hannah  Pratt,  of 

*  The  old  Clark  homestead,  no  less  stanch  than  when  the  settlers  raised  its  oaken 
timbers  in  1708,  overlooks  the  Lebanon  hills  in  1897  just  as  it  did  when  the  little  boy 
who  was  destined  to  take  so  worthy  a  part  in  his  country's  struggle  for  freedom 
played  about  the  cobwebbed  attic.  It  was  here  that  he  said  good-by  to  wife  and 
children  as  he  went  away  to  war  ;  it  was  here  that  he  lived  after  wife  and  children 
were  laid  to  rest,  and  the  children  of  his  granddaughter,  Nancy  Clark  Huntington, 
romped  about  him  ;  it  was  here  that  he  looked  for  the  last  time  over  the  hills  he 
loved  so  well. 


66  Captain  James  Clark,   of  Bunker  Hill  Renown.  [April, 

Harlford,  daughter  of  David  Pratt,  and  had  seven  children,  of  whom 
Moses  was  the  fourth. 

3.  Moses8  Clark  was  born  in  1683  at  Lebanon,  and  the  town  records 
state  that  he  and  Elizabeth  Huntington,  born  April  24,  1688,  daughter 
of  Lieut.  Samuel  Huntington  of  Lebanon  and  Mary  Clark  of  Farming- 
ton,  "were  married  together  on  February  23,  1709."  He  built  the 
Clark  homestead  just  previous  to  his  marriage,  and  various  transfers  of 
town  property  show  him  to  have  been  of  goodly  possessions  and  of  busi- 
ness ability.  His  gravestone  reads  as  follows:  "Here  lye  Inter'd  ye 
Remains  of  Moses  Clark,  who  was  of  a  sober,  virtuous,  charityble  Dispo- 
sition ;  who  having  served  his  generation  faithfully  departed  this  Lyfe  in 
hope  of  Lyfe  Eternal  Sep.  the  1 8th,  1749  in  th  67th  year  of  his  age." 
His  wife's  gravestone  reads  as,  follows:  "Here  lies  ye  Body  of  Mrs. 
Elizabeth  Clark,  wife  of  Mr.  Moses  Clark,  who  recommended  herself 
and  her  religion  to  the  world  by  Piety  and  Good  Works,  skilful  and 
greatly  useful  in  the  Art  of  Healing,  who  to  ye  Publick  loss  and  grief 
was  Suddenly  called  to  a  better  hope  Dec.  27,  1761  in  the  73d  year  of 
her  age."     There  is  record  of  the  following  children  : 

i.   Mary*,  born  January  22,  1 7 1 6. 
ii.   Moses4,  born  September  2,  1720. 
iii.  Anna4,  born  January  26,  1722. 
iv.  Elizabeth4,  born  January  25,  1724. 
v.   John4,  born  January  27,  1727;  married  Jerusha,   daughter 

of  Jabez    Huntington,   of  Windham,   and   granddaughter 

of  Rev.  Timothy  Edwards, 
vi.  James*,  born  September  15,  1730. 

4.  James4  Clark  is  recorded  as  baptized  September  20,  1730.  His  name 
appears  upon  the  town  records  in  various  land  grants  while  he  was  yet  a 
young  man,  and  he  was  given  several  town  offices,  being  Grand  Juror  in 
1772.  When  in  1775  came  the  Lexington  alarm,  he  mustered  a  company 
of  a  hundred  men  and  marched  to  the  scene  of  action.  He  took  part  in 
the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill,  and  over  and  over  again  told  the  story  of  that 
great  battle  to  his  great-grandchildren,"  of  whom  my  father  was  one,  as 
they  clustered  about  him  before  the  open  fire  in  "grandfather's  room  "  at 
the  old  Clark  homestead.  I  give  a  bit  of  the  old  soldier's  talk  as  it  was 
given  to  me,  a  little  child,  sitting  upon  my  father's  knee,  as  he  so  many 
years  before  had  sat  upon  the  knee  of  the  old  soldier: 

"Yes,  yes,  my  boys  and  girls,  it  was  a  wonderful  fight!  The  hun- 
dred men  who  with  me  had  made  the  march  from  Lebanon  to  Charles- 
town  Neck  in  three  days  were  brave  fellows,  every  one.  We  were  sent  to 
help  hold  the  Hill,  but  the  men  in  the  redoubt  were  so  nearly  out  of 
powder  that  we  could  only  cover  their  retreat.  We  kept  back  the  red- 
coats, though  !  I  fired  until  my  flintlock  was  hot  in  my  hands,  and  I 
wrapped  my  handkerchief  around  it.  And  everywhere  at  once  was  Gen- 
eral-Putnam, shouting  and  swearing  through  the  smoke  and  noise,  and 
urging  the  Connecticut  companies  to  hold  their  ground  so  long  as  possi- 
ble. He  was  a  little  man,  but  a  big  soldier.  Yes,  yes,  my  boys  and 
girls,  it  was  a  wonderful  fight.  Not  one  step  did  we  retreat  until  our 
ammunition  was  gone.  And  then  our  little  General  shouted,  'Are  the 
Yankees  cowards?  '  and  we  shouted  with  him." 

A  "  History  of  Connecticut, "  written  by  Elias  B.  Sandford,  and  pub- 
lished in  1889,  gives  this  reference  to  Captain  Clark  in  the  chapter  upon

1 897.]  Caplain  James  Clark,   of  Bunker  Hill  Renown.  6  7 

"  The  Battle  of  Bunker  Hill  "  :  "  Putnam  saw  that  he  must  have  rein- 
forcements and  a  fresh  supply  of  ammunition  if  he  held  his  position.  It 
was  at  this  moment  that  three  companies  from  Connecticut,  in  command 
of  Captains  Chester,  Clark,  and  Coit,  crossed  the  Neck  and  advanced  up 
the  hill.  With  them  was  Major  Durkee,  of  stamp-act  fame. 
The  brave  men  within  the  redoubt  had  only  a  few  charges  of  powder  left. 
When  these  were  expended  they  still  attempted  to  hold  their  ground,  but 
it  was  impossible.  With  sad  heart  Prescott  sounded  the  retreat.  .  . 
As  the  Americans  fell  back  Putnam  called  to  them  to  rally  and  make 
another  stand  against  the  enemy  ;  but,  with  their  ammunition  exhausted, 
they  could  only  retreat.  The  Connectic.ut  troops,  that  had  just  arrived 
on  the  ground,  were  eager  for  service,  and  Putnam  ordered  them  to  cover 
the  retreat  as  far  as  possible.  With  steady  aim  they  poured  volley  after 
volley  into  the  British  ranks." 

'■  A  History  of  the  Battle  of  Bunker's  Hill,"  a  monograph  by  George 
E.  Ellis,  published  in  1875,  says  :  "It  was  only  when  the  redoubt  was 
crowded  by  the  enemy  and  the  defenders  in  one  promiscuous  throng, 
and  fresh  assailants  were  on  all  sides  pouring  into  it,  that  Prescott,  no 
less,  but  even  more,  a  hero,  when  he  spoke  the  reluctant  word,  ordered 
a  retreat.'  A  longer  struggle  would  have  been  folly,  not  courage. 
While  such  was  the  issue  at  the  redoubt,  the  left  wing,  under 
Putnam,  aided  by  some  reinforcements  which  had  arrived  too  late,  was 
making  a  vigorous  stand  at  the  rail  fence.  But  the  retreat  at  the  redoubt 
compelled  the  resolute  defenders  to  yield  with  slow  and  reluctant  halt- 
ings,  as  their  flank  was  opened  to  the  enemy.  .  .  .  The  last  resist- 
ance at  the  rail  fence  was  of  the  utmost  service,  as  it  prevented  the  enemy 
from  cutting  off  the  retreat  of  the  provincials." 

"The  Record  of  Connecticut  Men  in  the  War  of  the  Revolution," 
published  by  the  State  of  Connecticut,  states  as  follows:  Page  15,  Lex- 
ington Alarm  List  :    "James  Clark,  Captain.      Served  9  days."

Putnam's.  Regiment  raised  on  first  call  for  troops  by  the  General  Assem- 
bly at  Special  Session  of  April-May,  1775.  It  was  recruited  in  Windham 
County,  with  one  company  from  New  London  County,  as  indicated  by 
the  residence  of  the  officers.  Marching  in  May  by  companies  to  die 
camps  forming  around  Boston,  it  was  stationed  during  the  siege  in  Put- 
nam's Centre  Division  at  Cambridge  until  expiration  of  term  of  service, 
December  10,  1775.  In  July  it  was  adopted  as  Continental.  A  detach- 
ment of  the  officers  and  men  were  engaged  at  Bunker  Hill,  as  stated  in 
the  note  on  the  battle." 

Page  58,  Note  on  Battle  of  Bunker  Hill  :  "  Reinforcements  from 
the  American  Camp  arrived  both  before  and  during  the  battle.  Among 
these  were  the  whole  or  portion  of  at  least  three  companies  of  Connecticut 
troops,  Captain  Chester  with  perhaps  sixty  men.  and  Captains  Clark  and 
Coit  also  arrived."  Among  the  Connecticut:  officers  mentioned  as  pres- 
ent in  the  action  are  General  Putnam,  in  general  command,  Major  Dur- 
kee, Captains  Chester,  Clark,  and  Coit;  Lieutenants  D.ina,  Keyes,  Hyde, 
Webb,  Grosvenor,  Bingham  (of  Norwich),  and  Ensigns  Hill  and  Bill  (of 
Lebanon).

posed of  Companies  from  Lebanon  and  Hebron  :  "  Major  James  Clark, 
Lebanon,  Captain.     Promoted  Major,  Dec.  — 76." 

So  bravely  and  well  did  Captain  Clark  fight  at  Harlem  Heights  and 
White  Plains  that  he  came  hojne  with  Major  changed  to  Colonel — an 
honorary  title  bestowed  upon  him  at  the  expiration  of  his  term  of  service, 
and  as  Colonel  he  was  known  to  all  his  town's  folk  afterward. 

In  "Reminiscences  of  Lebanon,"  written  by  "Grace  Greenwood" 
(Sarah  Jones  Clark,  a  great-niece  of  the  Colonel,  who  was  born  and 
brought  up  in  Lebanon,  and  who  married  J.  B.  Lippincott,  publisher  of 
Lippincoli's  Magazine),  reference  is  made  to  a  pathetic  incident  in  the 
Colonel's  life.  It  tells  how,  as  he  rode  into  Lebanon  on  the  white  war- 
horse  that  he  retained  for  so  many  years  afterward,  he  saw  a  funeral  pro- 
cession winding  into  Torrey  Hill  cemetery  ;  and  while  he  was  so  glad  in 
his  return,  anticipating  the  welcome  of  wife  and  children  at  the  old 
homestead,  his  heart  went  out  the  more  readily  to  such  of  his  town's 
folk  as  had  met  with  loss.  It  was  long  since  he  had  heard  from 
home — for  the  usual  slow  methods  of  communication  were  often  inter- 
rupted in  those  times  of  war — and  wondering  whom  death  had  taken,  he 
turned  his  horse  and  rode  after  the  procession.  He  heard  the  "Dust  to 
dust,  and  ashes  to  ashes  !  "  Then,  as  he  drew  nearer,  the  people  fell  back 
with  strangely  startled  faces — and  he  saw  that  it  was  his  wife  who  knelt 
weeping  beside  the  grave  of  their  little  twin  daughters  ! 

At  the  time  of  the  laying  of  the  corner-stone  of  Bunker  Hill  monu- 
ment, the  year  before  his  death,  when  he  was  ninety-five,  a  special  escort 
was  sent  from  Boston  to  accompany  him,  as  one  of  the  survivors  of  the 
battle,  to  the  spot  where  he  had  helped  hold  the  British  in  abeyance. 
His  picture,  taken  at  this  time,  shows  him  to  have  been  a  hale  old  man, 
and  the  papers  of  the  day  chronicled  his  threading  a  cambric  needle  at 
the  request  of  a  lady  who  was  curious  to  know  how  well  the  veteran  had 
retained  his  natural  sight.  He  was  treated  as  a  distinguished  guest  of 
the  occasion,  and  the  "  History  of  New  London  County  "  mentions  that 
Lafayette,  who  visited  Lebanon  during  the  war,  especially  noticed  Col- 
onel Clark,  and  upon  being  told  what  part  he  had  taken  in  that  great 
battle  went  up  to  him,  and,  kissing  him  after  the  fashion  of  French  im- 
pulsiveness, said  :   "You  wass  made  of  good  stoofe  !  " 

In  addition  to  my  father's  reminiscences  are  others — given  by  aged 
residents  of  the  town.  One,  a  bent  old  man,  tells  of  having  seen  Colonel 
Clark  but  once,  "and  then*  he  was  riding  like  a  streak  !  "  Another,  a 
woman  whose  years  border  on  a  century,  answered  my  questions  with  : 
"Oh,  yes,  I  remember  the  old  Colonel.  I  can  see  now  just  how  he 
looked,  riding  very  fast  and  very  erect.  He  often  passed  our  house  in 
going  to  visit  his  daughter-in-law,  and  once  he  spoke  to  me — a  little 
thing,  tottling  about  the  roadside  as  very  young  children  will.  He 
always  rode  a  very  spirited  horse,  and  sat  his  saddle  like  a  soldier.  My 
father  took  me  to  his  funeral.      It  was  a  great  occasion,  for  he  was  bur-

jO  Captain  James  Clark,   of  Bunker  Hill  Renown.  [April, 

ied  with  military  honors.  The  guns  fired  over  his  grave  frightened  me." 
Another  old  lady  chattered  of  how  her  father  and  mother  had  driven  to 
Bunker  Hill  to  witness  the  laying  of  the  corner-stone  of  the  monument. 
"  And  Colonel  Clark  was  there.  Lafayette  went  up  and  kissed  him. 
There  was  a  long  piece  about  it  in  the  papers  at  the  time.  I  shall  never 
forget  what  my  mother  told  me  about  it,  for  she  showed  me  the  dress  she 
wore, — and  she  felt  so  badly  because  she  got  some  wheel  grease  on  the 
front  breadth." 

The  town  records  state  that  on  January  20,  1757,  James  Clark  married 
Ann  Gray  of  Lebanon,  by  whom  he  had  two  sons,  Jacob, — who  as  a  lad 
of  sixteen  went  as  drummer  in  his  father's  company, — and  James.  There 
were  probably  other  children  by  this  marriage,  but  all  trace  of  them  is 
.  lost.  The  stone  over  Ann  Gray's  grave  in  the  old  Torrey  Hill  cemetery, 
where  years  afterwards  the  Colonel  was  buried  with  military  honors,  is 
broken  and  the  inscription  lost — so  that  the  time  of  her  death  is  not 
known.     Several  years  previous  to  the  war  he  married  as  his  second  wife 

Keziah ,  by  whom  he  had  two  daughters  :  Anna,  born  in  1767,  died 

September  18,  1770;  Wealthy,  born  in  1768,  died  1771.  By  this  mar- 
riage were  other  children.  It  is  known  that  they  did  not  outlive  their 
mother,  but  further  record  of  them  is  lost.* 

5.  James  Clark6  was  baptized  February  12,  1758  ;  married  Anna  L , 

date  not  known  ;  and  died  August  2,  1790,  aged  33  years.     His  wife,  Anna 

L ,  died  June  12,  181 1.     They  had  two  children  :  Nancy,  who  married 

my  grandfather,  Eliphalet  Huntington,  of  Lebanon,  and  James. 

6.  James  Clark6,  date  of  birth  not  known,  married  Anna  Champion, 
daughter  of  Salmon  and  Mary  Champion,  of  Lebanon.  He  kept  store  in 
Lebanon  until  1827,  then  moved  to  Bethany,  N.  Y.,  and  in  1836  to 
Michigan.  He  died  June  16,  1838,  at  Lyons,  Mich.  In  a  memorial 
pamphlet  printed  at  Detroit  in  1858  he  was  alluded  to  as  having  "led 
his  countrymen  to  the  battle-field  to  repel  a  foreign  foe  "  ;  and  to  this  ser- 
vice in  the  War  of  1S1 2  was  doubtless  due  the  honorary  title  of  "  Colonel  " 
by  which  he  was  commonly  known.  His  wife,  Anna  Champion,  died 
May  15,  1812,  leaving  one  son,  James  Augustus  (1S08-1S81),  whose 
widow  and  four  children  are  living  in  1897.  His  son,  James  Augustus7 
Clark  (born  August  15,  i8cS,  at  Lebanon,  died  July  2,  18S1,  at  Ridge- 
field,  N.  J;),  married,  April  24,  183S,  at  Monson,  Mass.,  Louisa  Rachel 
Thompson  (born  July  6,  1810,  at  Monson,  Mass.,  and  was  living  at  Bos- 
ton, Mass.,  in  March,  1S97).  He  worked  on  a  farm  at  Perry,  N.  Y., 
from   his  fifteenth  to  his  twenty-first  year  ;    then  prepared    for  college  ;

THE    LYON    FAMILY    OF    WINDHAM    COUNTY, 
CONNECTICUT. 


By  Eugene  F.  McPike,  of  Chicago,  Ills. 


Our  New  England  Lyon  families  are,  "unquestionably,  descended 
from  the  nob!e  family  of  that  name  in  North  Britain,  of  which  mention 
is  so  fully  made  by  Burke  in  his  '  Landed  Gentry,'  I.,  779.  Family 
records  and  traditions  point  in  that  direction.  Besides,  there  are  striking 
traits  of  character,  common  to  those  bearing  the  name  in  this  country 
and  to  their  trans-Atlantic  ancestors." 

"General  Nathaniel  Lyon  descended,  it  is  believed,  in  direct  male 
line,  from  Hon.  Sir  Thomas  Lvon,  Knt. ,  of  Auldbar,  Forfarshire,  North 
Britain,  who  was  designated  Master  of  Glamis,  brother  of  John,  Sth 
Lord  Glamis.  Sir  Thomas  was  one  of  the  principal  agents  in  the  seizure 
of  King  James  VI.  at  the  Raid  of  Ruthren,  August  23,  1582.  Was 
banished  to  England.  Returned  again  to  Scotland,  and  with  the  Earls 
of  Angus  and  Mar,  seized  Sterling  Castle.  Again  fled  to  England.  Re- 
turned, 15S5,  received  again  by  the  King  to  favor.  Appointed  Captain 
of  the  Guards,  High  Treasurer  of  Scotland,  and  Extraordinary  Lord  of 
Sessions.  Knighted,  1590.  Married,  1st,  Agnes,  daughter  of  Patrick, 
5th  Lord  Grey,  relict  of  Sir  Robert  Logan  of  Restalrig,  and  of  Alexander, 
5th  Lor  i»  Howe.  Married,  2nd,  Euphemia,  4th  daughter  of  Wm.  Doug- 
las, Earl  of  Moreton. 


76  The  Lyon  Family  of  Windham  County,    Conn.  [April, 

Issue  :  John,  married  a  daughter  of  George  Gladstone,  Archbishop 
of  St.  Andrews. 

Arms. — Arg.  a  lion,  rampant,  az.  armed  and  langued,  within  a  double 
tressure,  flowered  and  counter-flowered,  gu.  crest. — A  lady  holding  in 
her  right  hand  the  Royal  thistle,  &c,  in  allusion  to  the  alliance  with  the 
daughter  of  the  King. 

Motto. — In  te,  Domine,  speravi. 

Political  and  civil  troubles  forced  several  members  of  this  family  to 
emigrate  to  New  England  in  the  seventeenth  century.  Thomas  and 
Ephraim  Lyon,  who  were  brothers,  came  in  Company.  General  Na- 
thaniel descended  from  Ephraim."  The  name  "  Ephraim  "  was  used  in 
three  successive  generations. 

3.  Ephraim3  Lyon  (Ephraim3,  Ephraim1).  Born  1737.  Settled  in  Ash-

months  in  the  War  of  Independence,  and  afterwards  became  a  successful 
farmer  and  lawyer  in  the  town  of  Ashford."  He  married  Esther  Bennett. 
They  had  :

4.  Amasa4  Lyon  (Ephraim3,  Ephraim2,  Ephraim1)  was  also  a  substan-

politics,  entering  zealously  into  the  ardent  contest  which  resulted  in  the 
elevation  of  Thomas  Jefferson  to  the  presidency."  He  died  April  11, 
1843.      He  married  Keziah  Knowlton,  January  3,  1805.*     They  had  :

whom  few  as  loyal  and  brave  ever  lived,  is  familiar  10  all  true  Americans. 
The  space  allotted  this  article  will  not  permit  a  sketch  of  his  life  and 
services.  He  died  August  10,  1S61,  at  the  Battle  of  Wilson's  Creek,  in 
Missouri. 

*  A  complete  description  of  the  maternal  ancestry  of  General  Nathaniel  Lyon 
(that  is,  the  Knowlton  family)  is  given  in  a  pamphlet  entitled  "  Statue  of  Colonel 
Thomas  Knowlton  ;  Ceremonies  at  the  Unveiling,"  published  1S95  by  Case,  Lock- 
wood  &  lirainard  Company,  of  Hartford,  Conn. 


1897-]  ^ne  Lyon  Family  0/  Windham  County,   Conn.  yy 

6.  Isaiah3  Lyon  (Ephraim5,  Ephraim1).  Born  1742.  Was,  in  all  prob- 
ability, a  brother  of  (3)  Ephraim3  Lyon.  The  name  of  Isaiah  Lyon 
appears  among  those  who  marched  from  the  town  of  Woodstock  for  the 
relief  of  Boston  in  the  Lexington  alarm,  April,  1775.  He  died  August 
25,  1813.  He,  with  his  wife,  is  buried  in  South  Woodstock,  Conn.  He 
married  Elizabeth  (born  1744).     They  had  (at  least)  : 

7.        i.  Luther  W.4 

7.  Luther   W *  Lyon  *   (Isaiah3,  Ephraim2,  Ephraim1)  lived,  and  was 

probably  born,  in  that  part  of  Woodstock,  Conn.,  known  as  '*  Quasset," 
in  South  Woodstock.  He  was  a  wool-carder,  and  a  small  factory  now 
stands  where  his  mill  was.  He  also  possessed  a  farm.  His  middle 
name  may  have  been  Wells.  In  that  case  it  might  be  safe  to  a-sume  that 
his  first  wife  (Nancy  Wells  f)  was  related  to  him  by  blood,  possibly  a  first- 
cousin.  His  signature  (as  it  appears  in  letters  written  about  1840)  usu- 
ally reads  "Luther  W.  Lyon."  On  the  fly-leaf  of  a  school-book 
entitled  "Geography  Made  Easy,"  by  Jedidiah  Morse,  D.D.,  A.A.S.  (in 
the  writer's  possession),  published  in  Boston  in  the  year  1S06,  there 
appear?,  in  a  large  open  hand,  this  inscription  : 

Luther  \V.  Lyon,  Junr- 
Property 
Woodstock,  Feby  20th,  1S14.     . 

Below  this,  in  the  handwriting  of  Luther  Wells5  Lyon,  appears  these 
words:  "my  Father's  hand-writting."  As  Luther  Wells6  Lyon  was,  in 
1 8 14,  a  schoolboy  of  about  twelve  years  of  age,  the  book  was,  undoubt- 
edly, his  "Property,"  and  the  use  of  the  term  "Junr"  would  seem  to 
imply  that  his  father's  name  was  also  Luther  Wells  Lyon,  and,  as  before 
remarked,  this  may  have  been  the  case.  An  old  resident  of  Woodstock 
(now  living)  has  this  recollection  of  it.  Luther  W.1  Lyon  was  mar- 
ried twice.  His  first  wife  was  Nancy  Wells  (who  may  have  been  related 
to  him  by  blood).     They  had  : 

i.  Luther  Wells6,J  born  May  6,  1802  ;  married  Martha  Ward- 
well  Fairfield,  February  27,  1831  ;  joined  Putnam  Lodge, 
No.  46.  A.  F.  &  A.  M.,  town  of  Woodstock,  Conn., 
November  1,  1837.  Certificate  of  membership  shows 
"  Henry  Wells,  S.   Warden,"  probably   an  uncle.      Died 

near  Bethalto,  Madison  County,  Illinois,  ,  . 

ii.    Isaiah6   Lyon,   born    February  9   (?),   1S04;    married    Mary 
B.  Hitchcock,  184  1.      Died  at  Rockford,  Illinois,  January 
23,  1S83. 
iii.   Nancy6,  married,   first,  a   '"Johnson";  married,   second,   a 
"'  Ketchum." 

*  Luther  Wells5  Lyon  died  in  1S85  ;  in  his  will,  made  in  Madison  County, 
Illinois,  July  7,  1SS5,  refers  to  his  grandparents  :  "  Isaiah  Lyon,  Bom  1742,  Eliza- 
beth his  wife  born  1744  died  in  So.  Woodstock.      Isaiah  Lyon  died,  Aug.  25,  1S13." 

f  Nancy  Wells  was  born  April  17,  17S1,  and  died  January  3,  1 8 1 5.  Her  father, 
Henry  Wells,  was  born  January  28,  1753  ;  died  October  14,  1S23.  Her  mother, 
Nancy  Shinlifif  Wells,  born  April  23,  1760,  died  April   24,  1S15. 

X  Luther  Wells6  Lyon  (the  writer's  maternal  grandfather)  and  his  brother  Isaiah6, 
and  their  half-brother  George6  were,  according  to  an  oft-repealed,  and  undoubtedly 
true,  family  tradition,  third-cousins  of  General  Nathaniel  Lyon  in  the  direct  male 
line.  Therefore,  their  respective  paternal  grandfathers  were,  unquestionably, 
brothers. 


78  The  Lyon  Family  of  Windham  Counly,   Conn.  [April, 

His  second  wife  was  Rebecca  Greene.     They  had  : 

i.   George  Greene6,  born  April  24,  1820  (taught  school  in  Fall 

River);    married   Frances   Maria   Dunlap,    December  15, 

1847  >*   died . 

ii.   Amy  Ann6,  born  March  20,  18 18  ;  married  Robinson  ; 

died  April  20,  1861. 
iii.   Rebecca    Greene5,    born    December    10,    1822  ;  married    a 

"  Gibson  "  ;  now  living  in  Brookfield. 
In  the  records  of  Windham  County  the  name  "  Lyon  "  is  of  very 
frequent  occurrence,  particularly  in  connection  with  the  history  of  that 
part  now  known  asAshford,  Woodstock,  and  Pomfret  townships.  Among 
the  earliest  recorded  appearances  of  the  name  is  about  the  time  '■  Rox- 
bury's  Colony"  was  established.  After  the  return  to  Roxbury  of  the 
men  who  had  been  sent  to  "spy  out  Woodstock,"  and  after  the  plans 
had  been  fully  discussed  and  "prayerfully  considered,"  articles  of  agree- 
ment were  drawn  up  on  July  21,  1686.  Among  those  who  fulfilled  the 
agreement  and  took  personal  possession  of  land  in  the  "colony"  appear 
the  names  of  William  Lyon,  Sen.,  Thomas  Lyon  and  William  Lyon, 
Jun.  William  Lyon,  Sen.,  and  certain  others,  "were  men  advanced  in 
years,  going  out  with  grown  up  sons  to  the  new  settlement,  leaving 
estates  behind  them."  None  under  nineteen  years  of  age  were  admitted 
as  proprietors.  On  Saturday,  August  28,  16S6  (O.  S. ),  the  company 
"  met  on  Plaines'  Hill  "  and  drew  lots  as  to  locations,  which  resulted  in 
Thomas  Lyon  securing  sixteen  acres,  William  Lyon,  Jun.,  fifteen  acres, 
and  William  Lyon,  Sen.  (jointly  with  Ebenezer  Cass),  the  "South  end 
of  Plaine  Hill,  bounded  east  by  common  land."  "Thomas  Lyon's 
house  was  occupied  by  the  first  of  November,  and,  doubtless,  others  were 
equally  forward."  "In  1704,  the  first  school  house  was  built  on  the 
common  near  the  meeting  house,"  and  the  second  schoolmaster  reported 
is  Thomas  Lyon.  The  writer  realizes  that  the  above  has  but  little  genea- 
logical value,  and  presents  it  here  merely  to  afford  a  glimpse  at  the  early 
days  of  the  Lyon  family  in  Windham  County. 

The  Official  Register  of  Connecticut  men  in  the  War  of  the  Revolu- 
tion shows  forty-five  bearing  the  name  of  "Lyon,"  thus  demonstrating 
that  the  "  fighting  qualities  "  of  the  family  had  not  degenerated  since  the 
days  of  its  ancient  progenitor,  Hon.  Sir  Thomas  Lyon,  Knt. 

The  nine  named  below  marched  frcm  the  town  of  Woodstock  "for 
the  relief  of  Boston,  in  the  Lexington  alarm,  April,  1775."

To  trace  all  the  numerous  branches  of  the  Lyon  family  would,  of 
course,  be  impossible.  Enough  has  probably  been  presented  to  afford 
assistance  to  some  subsequent  "  searcher  of  the  records."  Mention  should 
not,  however,  be  omitted  here  of  the  genealogy  of  Asa  Lyon  of  Pomfret.

8.  Jonathan1  Lyon  probably  lived  in  Pomfret,  Conn.  It  is  not  likely 
that  he  was  closely  related  to  the  other  members  of  the  Lyon  family  pre- 
viously mentioned  herein.  He  was  married  twice,  and  had,  in  all, 
seventeen  children,  of  but  one  of  whom  (16th  child)  can  the  name  be 
now  located.      His  second  wife  was  Rebecca  Maxley.    They  had  (at  least): 

9.  i.  Asa2,  born  December  31,   1763. 

9.  Asa2  Lyon  (Jonathan1),  born  in  Pomfret,  Conn.,  December  31,  1763. 
A  manuscript  sketch  of  his  life,  written  by  a  pupil  of  Asa2  Lyon's  (Rev. 
James  Dougherty),  states  that  "of  his  paternal  ancestors  no  information 
remains  farther  than  this  :  They  came  from  England  to  Roxbury  at  an 
early  period  of  the  settlement  of  New  England."  Asa2  Lyon  graduated 
from  Dartmouth  College  in  1791.  Was  ordained  at  Sunderland,  Mass., 
October  24,  1792.  Removed  to  South  Hero,  Grand  Isle  County,  Ver- 
mont. Was  appointed  Chief  Judge  of  that  county  in  1805,  and  served 
as  such  for  nine  years.  Was  elected  a  representative  from  Grand  Isle 
County  for  several  terms,  and  was  a  member  of  the  Executive  Council  in 
1808.  Elected  a  member  of  Congress  from  18 15  to  1817.  Was  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Corporation  of  the  University  of  Vermont,  from  1814  to  182  1, 
inclusive.  He  is  said  to  have  been  a  second-cousin  of  Robert  Burns, 
the  Scotch  poet.  He  was  for  many,  years,  and  until  his  death,  an  able 
preacher  of  the  Gospel.  He  published  sermons  and  patriotic  addresses. 
Died  at  South  Hero,  Vermont,  April  4,  1  iv 4 1 .  Sketches  of  his  life  may 
be  found  in  Walton's  "Records  of  the  Governor  and  Council  "  (Ver-

Drake's  "  History,  of  American  Biography, "  and  Deming's  "  Catalogue. " 
He  married  Esther  Newell.     They  had  :

THE    DIGBY    NEW   GRANT 


By  Thomas  Henry  Edsall.  Colorado  Springs,  Col. 


Ox  January  29,  1801,  Sir  John  Wentworth,  Bart.,  LL.D.,  Lieutenant- 
Governor  and  Commmder-in-Chief  of  the  Province  of  Nova  Scotia,  signed 
a  royal  grant  of  ninety-one  thousand  six  hundred  and  thirty-two  acres  of 
lands  in  Annapolis  County,  Nova  Scotia,  to  Isaac  Haifield  and  two  hun- 
dred and  seventy-five  others,  refugees  (or  their  heirs)  from  the  Uniied 
States  at  the  close  of  the  Revolutionary  War.  It  recites  that  "after  the 
peice  which  took  place  in  the  year  a.d.  1783  divers  of  our  faithful  sub- 
jects, before  that  time  serving  in  our  armies  or  residing  within  places 
then  out  of  our  leigance,  being  attached  to  our  Royal  Person  and  Gov- 
ernment, did  come  with  their  families  to  reside  within  our  Province  of 
Nova  Scetia  ;  that  it  was  our  Royal  pleasure  that  certain  of  our  uncul- 
tivated lands  within  our  said  Province  should  be  appropriated  to  the 
benefit  of  our  said  subjects  ;  that  we  were  pleased  to  appropriate  certain 
lands  in  the  western  part  of  the  county  of  Annapolis  to  that  purpose 
and  to  designate  same  by  the  name  of  the  Township  of 
Digby, "  etc.  This  mw  grant  confirmed  certain  letters  given  by  a  prior 
grant  of  February  20,  17S4,  to  Amos  Botsford  and  three  hundred  others, 
of  sixty-five  thousand  six  hundred  acres  which  had  been,  partly,  for- 
feited and  revested  in  the  Crown  by  the  Court  of  Escheats  and  Forfeit- 
ures, and  granted  additional  lands  to  other  subjects  by  'our  further 
gracious  Bounty."  As  the  grantees  include  many  old-time  residents  of 
New  York,  their  names  are  given  alphabetically  for  convenience  of  refer-

From  Chancery  B.  and  A.  Elizabeth.  H.  h.  20,  No.  27,  a.d.  1573  : 
Bill  of  complaint  by  John  Howell  of  Wedon,  Co.  Bucks,  "  that 
whereas  William  Howell  his  father,  also  of  Wedon,  deceased,  purchased 
the  manor  of  Westbury  lying  in  Marsh  Gibbon  in  the  said  county." 
The  pedigree  of  the  family  is  then  given.  William  and  his  wife  Maud 
had  issue — John  the  elder,  and  John  the  younger  (the  plaintiff).  Maud 
died,  and  William  then  married  Anne  Dyer,*  and  had  issue,  Henry 
Howell  (the  defendant).  William  died  seized  of  the  premises,  and  John 
the  elder  succeeded  him.  John  dying  without  issue,  the  same  ought  to 
have  descended  to  the  plaintiff,  John  the  younger,  as  second  son  and 
heir  of  William  and  Maud.  But  Henry  Howell,  having  the  custody  of 
all  the  deeds,  etc.,  relating  to  the  estate,  has  entered  into  possession, 
claiming  them  to  be  his  inheritance,  and  refuses  to  show  whether  the 
plaintiff  is  entitled  or  no. 

Answer  of  the  defendant,  Henry  Howell  :  He  states  that  his  fathei 
William  by  his  will  bequeathed  his  estate  which  he  purchased  of  Sir  Rob- 
ert Dormer,  Kt.,  to  his  eldest  son  and  his  heirs  with  remainder  to  Henry 
Howell,  the  defendant,  and.  in  default  of  such  issue,  remainder  to  his  son 
Jacob  Howell  and  his  hehrs.  William  Howell  died,  and  Anne  his  wife 
(for  term  of  six  years  only)  and  John  the  eldest  son  became  possessed. 
John  died  without  issue,  and  Anne  continued  the  possession  until  the 
expiration  of  the  said  six  years,  when  it  came  into  the  possession  of  the 
defendant.

PERSONS  NATURALIZED  IN  NEW  JERSEY  BETWEEN 
1702  AND  1776. 


By  Dr.  John  R.  Stevenson. 


The  names  of  the  persons  naturalized  by  the  Assembly  of  New  Jersey 
between  the  union  of  ihe  provinces  of  East  and  West  Jersey  in  1702  and 
the  commencement  of  the  Revolutionary  struggle  are  collated  from  Allin- 
son's  "Acts  of  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Province  of  New  Jersev  from 
the  Surrender  of  the  Government  to  Queen  Anne  on  the  17th  Day  of 
April  in  the  Year  of  our  Lord  1702,  to  the  14th  day  of  January  1776,"  a 
book  published  in  Burlington,  N.  J.,  in  1776. 

The  work  gives  the  full  text  of  only  a  limited  number  of  laws  ;  the 
remainder  are  indicated  by  their  titles.  The  reason  for  the  naturalization 
of  these  citizens  is  given  in  the  title  to  the  law  passed  July  8,  1730,  viz.: 
"An  Act  for  the  better  enabling  divers  inhabitants  of  the  Province  of 
New  Jersey  to  hold  Land,  and  invest  them  with  the  privileges  of  natural 
born  Subjects  of  the  said  Province." 

Naturalization  enactments  of  a  private  and  personal  character  con- 
tinued to  be  passed  until  September  16,  1772,  when  a  general  law  was 
enacted  for  the  reasons  assigned  in  its  preamble.  This  shows  the  status 
of  foreigners  born  out  of  the  jurisdiction  of  Great  Britain,  especially  when 
taken  in  connection  with  the  qualifications  of  electors  under  colonial 
regime.  By  the  act  passed  April  4,  1709,  no  one  could  vote  for  members 
of  the  Assembly  unless  possessed  of  one  hundred  acres  of  land  in  his  own 
right,  or  was  worth  ^50  in  real  and  personal  estate.  To  be  eligible  to 
membership  in  the  Assembly,  one  must  own  one  thousand  acres  of  land, 
or  be  worth  ^"500  in  real  and  personal  property.  These  laws  were  in 
force  up  to  the  Revolution. 

The  enacting  clause  and  preamble  of  the  general  law  above  referred  to 
reads  :  "An  Act  to  enable  all  Persons  who  are  His  Majesty's  liege  Sub- 
jects either  by  Birth  or  Naturalization,  to  inherit  and  hold  Real  Estates, 
notwithstanding  any  Defect  of  purchases,  made  before  Naturalization 
within  this  Colony." 

"Whereas  divers  foreign  Protestants,  born  without  the  Liegeance 
of  the  Crown  of  Great  Britain  are  settled  within  this  Colony,  who,  being 
unacquainted  with  the  Laws  and  Customs  thereof  have  purchased  Real 
Estates  within  the  same  before  they  were  naturalized  ;  ami  such  Estates 
are  now  held  and  claimed  under  such  Purchases  by  his  Majesty's  natural 
born  Subjects,  or  such  as  are  naturalized  ;  and  as  the  greater  Number  of 
these  are  poor  Persons  who  will  be  utterly  ruined  if  Advantage  is  taken 
of  the  Alienism  of  such  Purchaser;  in  tender  Commiseration  of  all  Per- 
sons holding  or  claiming  by  such  defective  Title,  and  confiding  in  His 
Majesty's  great  Bounty,  the  General  Assembly  prays  that  it  may  be 
Enacted,"  Ac. 

This  was  confirmed  by  the  King  in  Council,  September  1,  1773.

REV.   JOHN   BISHOP,  OF    THE  MASSACHUSETTS  AND 
CONNECTICUT   COLONIES,    1640-1695. 


By  Nathaniel  Holmes  Bishop,  of  Lake  George,  New  York. 


Very  little  relating  to  the  life  of  Rev.  John  Bishop  is  known  to  his- 
torical writers,  though  he  was  once  celebrated  throughout  the  New  Eng- 
land colonies  as  one  of  the  most  self-sacrificing  and  hard-working  divines. 
As  his  identity  has  been  confused  with  that  of  several  other  men  of  the 
same  name,  I  have  collected  all  the  material  obtainable  to  illustrate  his 
personality.  Fie  is  thus  introduced  in  that  somewhat  rare  book  of  Mrs. 
Caulkins,  the  "  History  of  Stamford,  Connecticut": 

"Coming  together,   after  much  deliberation  and  prayer,  the  people 


go  Rev.  John  Bishop,   1640-1695.  [April, 

selected  two  of  their  number,  Lieut.  Francis  Bell  and  George  Slauson, 
furnished  them  with  food  for  the  way  and  sent  them  on  foot  to  Boston  to 
see  if  they  could  not  find  one  John  Bishop,  whose  name  had  been 
reported  to  them,  or  some  minister  whom  they  could  persuade  to  come 
back  with  them  .  .  .  they  providentially  find  Mr.  Bishop,  then  a 
young  man,  on  whom  was  the  seal  of  consecration  &  promise,  and 
with  much  persuasion  they  prevailed  on  him  to  accept  this  pressing  call 
from  the  Lord.  Taking  his  staff  and  his  well-used  Bible  in  his  hand 
he  started  with  the  two  brethren  for  the  field  of  labor." 

'  After  consulting  several  sources,  I  am  led  to  believe  that  Mr.  Bishop 
was  educated  in  England.      It  is  not  known  when  he  arrived  in  America. 

Dr.  James  Savage  says  he  was  of  Taunton,  Mass.,  in  1640,  and  died 
at  Stamlord,  Conn.,  in  1694,  in  the  month  of  November  or  December. 

His  first  wife  was  Rebecca ,  whom  he  married  at  Stamford.     She 

died  in  1679.  His  second  wife  was  Joanna  Boys,  who  had  been  the 
widow  of  Rev.  Peter  Prudden,  of  Milford.  This  Joanna  was  made  the 
daughter  of  Capt.  Thomas  Willett,  of  Swansey,  who  died  August  3,  1674, 
by  one  authority,  but  I  find  in  a  letter  written  by  Mr.  Bishop  to  Rev. 
Increase  Mather,  of  Boston,  the  writer  says  :  "my  wife  (that  was  Mrs. 
Willet)  desiring  the  same." 

Mrs.  Caulkins  states  that  Rev.  John  Bishop  came  to  Stamford  in  1644, 
and  in  1650  had  a  house.  His  wife's  name  was  Rebecca  ;  their  children 
were  :  Steven,  Joseph,  Ebenezer,  Benjamin,  and  Whiting.  Mr.  Bishop's 
will,  made  November  16,  1694,  mentions  his  first  wife  Rebecca  and  the 
above-named  children. 

At  the  first  May  session  of  the  General  Court  in  New  Haven,  in  1659, 
it  was  reported  that  Mr.  Bishop  encountered  so  much  discouragement 
that  he  desired  to  leave  Stamford.  But  the  good  man  labored  on,  and 
in  1667  the  town  freed  his  estate  from  the  annual  minister's  tax. 

His  parish  was  extensive,  ''  preaching  from  Norwalk  out  to  the  borders 
of  New  York,  and  during  1673  the  church  secured,  as  his  assistant,  Mr. 
Eliphalet  Jones,  who  remained  at  Stamford  until  about  1676."  Mr.  Bishop 
received  for  his  services,  when  without  an  assistant,  an  annual  rate  of  £to. 
From  1676  until  about  the  time  of  his  death  this  faithful  minister  was 
without  an  assistant,  though  for  many  years  suffering  from  failing  health. 

The  closing  years  of  the  old  preacher  are  thus  described  by  Mrs. 
Caulkins:  "And  now  the  good  bishop  \sic\  who  so  long  had  kept 
spiritual  watch  over  this  widely  scattered  people  began  to  feel  the  in- 
firmities of  age.  At  the  town  meeting,  September  12,  1A92,  he  expresses 
an  earnest  desire  that  some  one  should  come  to  relieve  him. 

"The  town  desire  in  compliance  with  his  motion,  being  sensible  also 
of  their  own  necessity,  do  therefore  think  it  their  duty,  fir.>t,  to  settle  a 
maintenance  upon  Mr.  Bishop,  that  may  be  to  him  yearly  paid,  during 
his  lifetime,  in  case  we  have  a  supplv  of  another  minister." 

"They  then  vote  an  annuity  of /"40.  They  next' vote  ^50  to  be  pa:d 
annually  to  another  minister  during  Mr.  Bishop's  life.  In  December, 
1693,  they  vote  to  Mr.  Bishop  /"50  for  the  year."  About  this  time  Mr. 
Bishop  succumbed  to  his  infirmities,  and  died  a  few  months  later. 

The  residents  of  the  town  testified  to  their  minister's  popularity  bv 
occasional  gifts,  by  vote,  of  land  during  his  lifetime. 

The  following  extracts  from  the  Colonial  Records  of  Connecticut, 
1678-89,  II.,  p.  67,  refers  to  one  of  these  gifts  : 


1897-]  Rev.  John  Bishop,   1640-1695.  gi 

"Mr.  John  Moss  &  Mr.  John  Brockett  are  appoynted  to  lay  out  to 
Mr.  John  Bishop  his  grant  of  land  according  to  his  grant." 

"200  acres  laid  out,  by  John  Brockett  &  Thomas  Yale,  Sept.  28, 
1684,  on  the  east  side  of  New  Haven  East  river. — Col.  Recs.  Lands, 
II.,  130,  183." 

The  following  seems  to  refer  to  the  foregoing  tract  : 

"The  Two  hundred  acres  of  Land  Granted  to  Mr  John  Bishop  of 
Standford  (Stamford)  as  may  more  fully  appeare  by  General  Court  Grant 
October  the  8th  1674.  It  is  layd  out  &  bownded  begining  at  a  white 
oake  tree  standing  by  the  edge  of  the  River  commonly  called  New  Haven 
east  river  marked  %  By  86  &  from  thence  across  the  River  Eastward  Two

The  above  is  a  True  copy  of  the  originall  examined  &  compared  there 
wth  January  31.   1686  John  Allyn  sec5'  " 

The  Colonial  "Charter,"  or  written  instrument  of  conveyance  of  the 
above  specified  land,  is  also  recorded  with  the  same  Colonial  Secretary's 
certificate  of  its  gubernatorial  signature  and  of  its  date  "this  twentyeth 
day  of  May  1687,"  and  by  him  entered  of  record  June  3,  1687. 

A  "Mr.  Bishop"  as  "deceased  "  is  incidentally  mentioned  in  an  act 
of  the  Connecticut  Legislature  passed  at  their  meeting  in  May,  171 1,  and 
having  reference  to  the  settlement  of  a  successor  to  him  as  pastor  of  the 
church  in  Stamford,  Conn.  The  index  to  the  (printed)  record  gives  his 
full  name  as  "John  Bishop." 

As  some  confusion  exists  as  to  individuals  of  the  Taunton  Bishop 
families,  it  may  prove  useful  to  quote  from  Lechford's  "  Plain  Dealing,  or 
News  from  New  England,"  p.  91  :  "  Master  Hooke  received  ordination 
from  the  hands  of  one  Master  Bishop  a  school  master  and  one  Parker,  a 
husbandman."     Hooke,  about  164 1,  went  to  New  Haven. 

J.  Hammond  Trumbull  annotates:  "Master  Bishop  was  probably 
John  Bishop,  afterwards  minister  of  Stamford,  Conn."  See  New  England 
Historical  and  Genealogical  Register,  Vol.  VIII.,  p.  156.  Trumbull,  in 
the  "  History  of  Connecticut,"  Vol.  I.,  p.  206,  says  the  messengers  sent 
from  the  Stamford  church  travelled  through  the  wilderness,  on  foot,  to  the 
eastward  of  Boston,  where  they  found  Mr.  John  Bishop,  who  left  Eng- 
land before  he  finished  his  academical  studies  and  had  completed  his 
education  in  this  country. 

From  the  "  Pilgrim  Republic,"  p.  4q5  :  "  In  1639  one  of  the  lead- 
ing men  at  Taunton  was  Mr.  Townsend  Bishop,  schoolmaster  "  ;  p.  527, 
note:  ''In  1636  Mr.  Bishop  had  been  in  Mass.  Gen.  Court  from 
Salem  ;  he  soon  left  Taunton  with  his  family." 

1853,  54 — Diary  of  Obadiah  Russell,  tutor  at  Harvard  College,  1.  3, 
1682  :    "Mr.  Bishop  exercised  in  the  vacancy." 

1854,  156  :  "  Air.  John  Bishop  was  the  schoolmaster  at  Taunton  and 
Rev.  John  Bishop  of  Stamford." 

1857,  239  :  "Rev.  John  Bishop  married  Joanna,  widow  Willett.     In 


Q2  Rev.  John  Bishop,   1640-1695.  [April, 

her  will  she  is  recorded  as  somelime  Prudden,  so  seems  to  have  been 
daughter  of  Rev.  Peter  and  Joanner  (Boys)  Prudden  ;  and  w.is  the 
widow  of  Rev.  Peter  Prudden,  then  of  Thomas  Willett,  then  of  Rev. 
John  Bishop." 

In  the  "  Plymouth  Colony  Records,"  Vol.  II.,  p.  17,  will  be  found

freeman,  in  June,  164  1. 

The  Mather  Papers,  Massachusetts  Historical  Collection.  Series  4. 
Vol.  8.  There  are  fifteen  letters  from  Bishop  to  Mather.  P.  298,  John 
Bishop  to  Increase  Mather  ;  Stamford.  2  m.  26,  76  (1676)  : 

"  Revd.  Sir  and  dear  Brother ; — My  cordial  respects  unto  you  and  to 
Mrs.  Mather,  my  wife  desiring  the  same.  I  write  to  you  twice  by  Mr. 
Alden  in  the  latter  of  which  (as  I  remember)  I  entreated  your  helpful- 
ness to  my  poor  sister  Lake*  in  her  afflicted  state,  and  now  renew  that 
request."  .  .  .  "the  laying  waste  many  habitations  besides  your 
meeting  house,  and  vour  own  dwelling  house,  whereby  yourself  a  sufferer 
in  that  sad  calamity." 

P.  300:  John  Bishop  to  Increase  Mather;  Stamford,  2  m.  13,  77  (1677): 

"  Revd.  Sir  ;  .  .  .  Yours  of  12,  76-7  1  have  received  &  am  glad 
thereby  to  understand  that  your  books  were  preserved  from  those  consum- 
ing flames.  .  .  .  And  that  my  brother  Lake's  bones  (at  least)  were 
found  &  brought  to  decent  burial  in  Boston,  a  renewal  of  his  wife's 
sorrow  doubtless  it  must  be  ...  in  your  last  letter  I  received  the 
inclosed  from  Mr  Hook  in  England,  my  ancient  and  choice  friend  to 
whom  I  would  make  return  &  have  herein  sent  it  to  you,  supposing 
you  have  intercourse  with  him,  &  so  know  how  to  send  unto  him,  as  I 
do  not,  but  make  use  of  Mr.  Atwater,  when  living,  to  help  herein.  If 
you  should  not,  I  pray,  understand  if  my  Sister  Lake,  Mr.  Atwater,  that 
was,  do  know  &  I  will  undertake  the  conveyance,  or  Mr.  John  Lake  of 
Boston.  Likewise  must  further  interest  to  send  the  other  to  Mr.  Blin- 
man,  who,  I  suppose  you  may  likewise  know  .  .  .  there  being  in  it 
a  letter  to  my  own  and  only  sister  in  England  which  I  would  might  reach 
her.  John  Bishopp." 

P.  304.     To  the  same.      Stamforl,  1  m.  25,  7S  (1678)  : 

"Rev.  Sir:  .  .  .  One  word  more,  being  in  hasie.  Whereas  God 
has  given  me  four  living  sons  (of  eight  that  I  have  had)  &  none  of  them 
brought  up  to  learning,  to  my  great  grief,  though  two  of  them  in  a  good 
forwardness  long  since,  but  our  Latin  schole  failing  &  my  estate  too  fee- 
ble to  send  them  forth  their  progress  also  failed.  I  have  one  that  is  now 
entering  on  his  grammar  I  would  fain  give  learning  unto,  so  far  as  able  & 
shall  strain  hard  to  send  him."     . 

P.  307.      To  the  same.      Stamford,  6  m:    12.72(1672): 

"  Sr.  I  received  2  bookes  of  yours,  one  with  a  letter  to  my  Brother 
Wakeman  of  Fairfield.  ...  I  received  some  letters  from  .Sir.  Blin- 
man  of  Bristol  (England)  with  a  fardel  directed  for  me  which  Joseph 
Alsop  of  New  Haven  hath  brought.  (Skipper  Alsop.)  ...  I  un- 
derstand of  your  love  to  my  sister  Lake  and  her  son  in  letting  your  son 
be  an  help  in  learning.      I  earnestly  desire  to  give  some  of  mine  learning." 

P.  314.     Postscript.      Stamford  1.  m.  9.  86-7  : 

"  My  kind  respects  to  Mr.  Cotton,  Nathaniel  &  Mr.  John  Cotton,  your 
nephew  who  married  my  niece  Anna  Lake." 

*  Sister  Lake  was  widow  of  Thomas  Lake.     One  of  her  daughters  married  John 
Winthrop.

LETTER  FROM  AARON  BURR  TO  COLONEL  RUTGERS, 

FOUND    AMONG  THE   PATERS   OF    THE    LATE    REV.    DR.     HOWARD    CROSBY    AND    CON- 
TRIBUTED   BY    HIS   SON. 

Washing*-  4  Ap,  1S02 

Dear  Sir 

Your  letter  of  the  2S1I1  Mar.  gave  me  particular  pleasure,  as  it  is  the  only  letter 
which  I  have  received  from  Albany  giving  me  any  account  of  your  doings  there,  and 
since  my  arrival  in  this  city  I  do  not  recollect  to  have  written  but  one  single  letter  to 
that  place  which  one  was  in  answer  to  two  from  Mr.  Denning  on  a  subject  of  busi- 
ness. I  regret  very  much  that  you  did  not  earlier  let  me  know  that  you  thought 
of  me. 

I  have  written  to  M.  Willett  what  regards  your  petition  and  refer  you  to  him  for 
everything  on  that  head. 

The  act  to  abolish  the  internal  taxes  has  passed  both  houses  and  no  doubt  has 
before  this  time  the  sanction  of  the  Pres'.  The  H.  of  Rep.  have  resolved  to  admit 
the  N.  Western  territory  as  a  17th  State  into  the  Union,  to  be  called,  I  believe,  the 
State  of  Scioto.      We  are  now  occupied  in   mending  the  post-office  law  and  the  judi- 


1 897.]  Queries.  115 

ciary.     After  passing  these  bills  and  the  appropriation,  we  shall  have  nothing  to  pre- 
vent an  adjournment  which  I  expect  will  take  place  sometime  this  month ;  and  I 
think  our  constituents  will  say  that  thus  far  we  have  endeavored  to  serve  them. 
I  am  D.  Sir  with  very  great  regard  &  esteem 

your  friend  &  ob.  st. 

A.  Burr. 
Col.  H.  Rutgers. 

(The  post-mark  is  circular  and  resembles  our  present  post-marks  ;  it  reads, 
"  Wash.  City,  Apr.  4."     The  letter  has  Burr's  frank  indorsed  upon  it.) 

Burr  was  at  the  time  Vice-President  and  Col.  Rutgers  was  Member  of  the  New 
York  Legislature. 

NOTES. 

J,  W.  Moore,  Department  of  Physics,  Lafayette  College,  Easton,  Penna.,  has 
been  engaged,  during  the  last  year,  editing  the  records  of  Kingwood  Monthly  Meet- 
ing of  Hunterdon  County,  New  Jersey.  These  records  extend  from  1744  to  1S65 
and  later.  He  has  finished  the  marriages,  births,  deaths,  certificates  of  removal,  and 
sufferings  during  the  Revolution.  These  records  contain  the  names  of  a  large  body  of 
the  early  people  of  New  Jersey.  He  has  not  finished  the  minutes,  but  hopes  to  do 
some  work  on  them  soon.  Possibly  we  shall  have  the  results  of  his  labors  in  a  future 
number. 

Van  Houten  Family  [Record,  XXVII. ,  183].— Many  who  read  Mr.  Charles  L. 
Demarest  Washburn's  valuable  paper  on  "  The  Van  Houten  Family  of  Bergen,  N.  J.," 
in  The  Record  for  October,  1896,  may  be  interested  to  know  that  in  my  History 
of  Paterson,  now  in  press,  there  are  —  pages  devoted  to  a  genealogy  of  the  Van 
Houtens,  principally  of  those  who  left  Bergen  and  settled  at  Acquackanonk,  Slooter 
Farm,  Totowa,  Preakys,  the  Ponds,  Pompton,  and  Wanaque.

given  to  Augusta,  Maine  ;  of  whom  Robert  Lithgow  was  the  first  member  in  this 
country,  coming  from  Ireland  in  1719,  and  descended  from  the  proprietors  of  Dry 
Grange,  Scotland,  which  estate  has  continued  in  this  distinguished  family  for  three 
hundred  years. 

QUERIES. 

Dennis. — Who  was  the  wife  of  Mr.  Samuel  Dennis  of  Woodbridge,  N.  J.,  mem- 
ber of  the  Governor's  Council  169S  ?  Was  he  the  father  of  John  Dennis,  probably  of 
Woodbridge,  who,  in  16S7,  with  others,  purchased  a  tract  of  land  in  what  is  now

Hance,  Antrom,  Worthley,  Corlies,  Hartman,  Borden. — John  Hance, 
among  the   first  settlers  of  Monmouth    County,  N.   J.,   married,   in    1669,  Elizabeth 

(?),  and  had  Mary,  who  married,  1696,  James  Antrom  ;  Elizabeth,  who  married,

married,  1704-7 Hartman  ;    Hesta,  John,  and  Isaac. 

Did  Hesta  marry,  and  if  so,  whom?  Whom  did  John,  Jr.,  marry?  In  his 
will  he  speaks  of  his  wife  Elizabeth,  his  two  sons  Thomas  and  John,  and  his  daugh- 
ters ;  while  tradition  says  he  married  Joyce  Borden. 

Can  any  one  furnish  the  address  of  any  descendent  of  Mary  Antrom,  Elizabeth 
Worthley,  Deborah  Corlies,  Judith  Hartman,  or  John  Hance,  Jr.,  who  will  correspond

23i   1675,    married    Hannah ,    who  died  August    17,    1712,   aged  3S,    and    is 

buried  in  the  old  graveyard  at  Orient.  What  was  her  maiden  name  and  the  names 
of  her  parents  ?  She  has  heretofore  been  confused  with  a  certain  Hannah  Havens,

(Wallace),  of  Scotch-Irish  descent,  and  had  eight  children,  all  of  whom  appear  to 
have  left  descendants.  This  Cambridge  is  presumably  the  place  of  that  name  in 
what  is  now  called  Washington  County,  X.  Y.  Will  any  one  put  me  in  the  way  of 
ascertaining  who  Mary's  parents  were?

Colonel  EFHRAIM  Martin. — Can  any  one  tell  me  the  name  of  the  wife  of  Colonel 
Ephraim  Martin  of  Su>>ex  County,  New  Jersey,  or  anything  about  the  ancestors  of  the 
said  Ephraim?  This  Colonel  Ephraim  Martin  was  born  in  Central  New  Jersey, 
probably  Somerset  or  Middlesex  County,  in  the  year  1733,  and  died  in  New  Bruns- 
wick, February  28,  1806.  He  was  one  of  the  early  settlers  in  Sussex  County,  was  a 
landholder  there  as  early  as  1 761 ,  and  was  appointed  coroner  of  Sussex  County  at 
the  council  held  in  Burlington,  N.  J.,  February  21,  1774. 

He  was  a  member  of  the  Provincial  Congress  at  Trenton,  October  20,  1775,  also 
of  the  Congress  which  met  in  May,  1776,  which  was  the  Congress  that  changed  the 
constitution  of  New  Jersey  from  that  of  a  colony  to  that  of  a  Slate.  He  was  colonel 
of  a  battalion  of  General  Nathan  Heard's  brigade  of  New  Jersey  militia,  ordered  to 
reenforce  the  defences  of  New  York.  His  commission  is  dated  June  14,  1776.  He 
was  wounded  August   24,  1776,  by  a  musket  ball  in  the  breast,  at  the  outposts,  pre-

vious  to  the  battle  of  Long  Island,  which  occurred  August  27,  1776.  He  was  colonel 
of  the  fourth  battalion  in  the  second-establishment  of  the  New  Jersey  Continental  line, 
November  28,  1776.  He  was  wounded  in  the  head  at  the  battle  of  Brandywine, 
September  11,  1777  ;  was  at  Valley  Forge  during  the  famous  winter,  and  marched 
across  New  Jersey  as  far  as  Princeton  in  June,  1778  ;  was  stationed  there  with  a 
reserve  at  the  time  of  the  battle  of  Monmouth,  June  27,  1778.  He  resigned  from  the 
service  at  some  later  date,  the  exact  time  being  unknown. 

After  the  war  he  removed  to  Somerset  County,  New  Jersey,  living  in  Bernards- 
town.  He  was  elected  deacon  in  the  Mt.  Bethel  Haptist  Church,  June  27,  1787.  He 
removed  later  to  New  Brunswick,  where  he  died  at  the  home  of  his  son,  Squire  Mar- 
tin, February  23,  1S06.  He  was  buried  in  the  old  Baptist  cemetery  at  Stelton.  N.  J., 
where  his  headstone  is  still  standing.  In  his  will  he  mentions  sons,  Squire.  Ephraim, 
Absalom,  Jeremiah,  and  daughters,  Elizabeth  Cutter  and  Catharine  Kennan.  A 
daughter  of  Ephraim,  Martha  (called  in  the  will  Patty),  born  May  18,  1779,  married 
Samuel  Stites  of  Somerset  County,  N.  J.,  later  of  Butler  County,  Ohio,  and  one  of 
the  early  settlers  of  St.  Clair  County,  111.,  whither  he  removed  about  1S20.  Their 
daughter,  Anna  Stites,  married  Dr.  Anthony  Wayne  Casad  (Cossart)  of  St.  Clair 
County,  111. 

Littell,  in  his  "  Early  Families  of  the  Passaic  Valley."  says  that  Col.  Ephraim 
Martin's  widow  married  Daniel  Cooper.  This  could  hardly  be  true,  as  Daniel  Cooper 
died  in  1796,  and. Ephraim  Martin  did  not  die  till  1S06. 

Any  information  as  to  the  wife  of  Col.  Ephraim  Martin,  or  additional  information 
concerning  Ephraim  Martin  himself,  or  concerning  the  ancestors  of  either  or  both,  as 
well  as  any  information  concerning  their  later  descendants,  will  be  gratefully  received.

again.  Stephen,  believed  to  be  only  issue  by  this  third  marriage,  born  November 
25.  I77°  Who  was  this  third  wife?  Was  she  also  a  Groesbeck?  Tradition  is 
clear  that  he  served  in  the  Revolutionary  Army,  and  died  a  prisoner  in  the  Provost, 
New  York  City.  The  date  of  his  death  is  unknown.  Letters  of  administration 
were  granted  on  his  estate  by  the  Surrogate  of  New  York  City  to  his  son,  Dr.  John 
Groesbeck  Wright,  et  al.,  August  10,  17S6  ;  the  record  discloses  nothing  but  this  fact.

Youngs-Wells-Budd-Brown-Tuthill. — What  kinship,  if  any,  existed  between 
the  Rev.  Christopher  Yonge,  Young,  or  Youngs,  Vicar  of  Reydon,  Suffolk  County, 
England,  and  his  Curate,  Rev.  John  Young,  founder  of  Southold,  N.  Y.  ?  Some 
believe  that  Capt.  Joseph  Young  and  the  Rev.  John  were  brothers  ;  others  deem  the 
Vicar  the  probable  uncle  of  his  Curate  (Wm.  Wells  of  Southold) ;  while  an  old  family 
record,  not  indeed  of  Rev.  John's  day,  but  perhaps  embodying  truths  learned  from 
his  lips,  states  that  they  were  father  and  son. 

The  late  Chas.  B.  Moore,  Esq.,  an  authority  on  the  subject  second  to  none, 
says,  "  It  has  been  conjectured  that  our  Pastor  John,  if  a  son  of  the  Rev.  Christopher 
Young,  was  probably  by  a  former  wife,  and  not  by  his  latest,  named  Margaret." 

As  Captain  Joseph,  before  mentioned,  married  a  daughter  of  the  Vicar  (New 
York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Record.  April,  18S3),  the  Rev.  John,  if  a 
son  of  the  latter,  could  not  have  been  the  brother  of  Joseph. 

The  Vicar's  daughter,  Martha,  married  Thos.  Moore,  and  came  to  Southold. 
Mary,  believed  to  have  been  her  sister,  married  Wm.  Brown  ;  while  Mrs.  Martha 
Wood,  and  Mrs.  Mary  Youngs,  sisters  of  the  Rev.  John,  were  named  in  his  will  as 
residents  of  London,  Eng.  (1  Coll.  Essex  Institute,  Record  of  July,  1SS2).  This 
neither  proves  nor  disproves  any  relationship  between  these  Londoners  and  the  Rev.

Christopher,  since  it  was  formerly  the  custom  to  give  two  or  even  three  children  of 
one  household  the  same  Christian  name.  Mistress  was  the  usual  designation  of  an 
unmarried  woman  till  the  reign  of  George  the  IVth.  Mrs.  Mary  Youngs,  not  being 
in  America,  could  not  have  been  the  wife  of  Win.  Wells,  Gent,  of  Southold,  whom 
tradition  asserts  to  have  been  a  Youngs.  This  Mary  Wells  died  in  April,  1709,  re. 
about  ninety  years,  a  fact  which  precludes  her  from  having  been  the  daughter  of 
Christopher1  (Rev.  Christopher3')  of  Wenham,  Mass.,  born  about  1639-40. 

Mary,  daughter  of  the  Rev.  John,  is  otherwise  accounted  for,  so  we  are  as  far  as 
ever  from  solving  the  parentage  of  Mary  (Youngs?)  Wells. 

Another  problem  of  great  interest  is  the  identity  of  Christopher  Youngs,  Sr.  and 
Jr.,  of  the  second  Southold  generation.  In  his  able  article  on  the  subject,  Mr. 
Moore  states  that  the  Senior  was  the  son  of  Christopher  of  Wenham  and  the  Junior  of 
Rev.  John,  as  both  had  sons  of  that  name.  Happily,  additional  light  on  the  subject 
made  Mr.  Moore  leave  in  print  a  refutation  of  his  earlier  theory  distinctly  affirming 
that  the  Junior  was  the  son  of  Christopher  of  Wenham.  He  was  bap'.ized  at  Salem, 
Mass.,  in  1643-44. 

The  Southold  Town  Records  (Vol,  I.,  pp.  26S,  282,  284,  2S5,  303,  304,  397) 
would  seem  to  settle  beyond  question  the  identity  of  Christopher,  Senior.  A  Christo- 
pher Youngs  received  a  gift  from  his  father.  Pastor  Youngs,  in  Oysterpond  Lower 
Neck,  which  he  exchanged  with  Benj.  Horton.  Benjamin,  in  his  turn,  exchanges  it 
with  Samuel  King,  stating  that  he  (Horton)  "had  purchased  the  same  of  Christo- 
pher Youngs,  Senior."  There  being  some  question  as  to  the  right  of  Benjamin  to 
dispose  of  the  property,  he  engages  to  make  Pastor  Yonge  confirm  the  gift  to  his  son 
Christopher,  which  is  accordingly  done.  Again,  "A  gift  &  grant  of  Mr.  Thos. 
Yonge  to  his  brother  Mr.  Christopher  Yonge,"'  is  exchanged  by  Christopher  Yonge, 
Sr.,  being  part  of  "ye  same  land  yt.  was  ye  late  Pastor  Yongs,  given  by  him  to  his 
son  Thos.     .     .      .     &  by  said  Thos.  sold  to  me." 

Christopher  Youngs,  Jr.,  married  Hannah  Nichols  (Town  Records  I.,  p.  123); 
Christopher,  Sr.,  married  Mary  Budd  (Ibid  ,  Vol.  II.,  p.  254).  It  was  at  one  time 
doubtful  whether  she  was  the  daughter  of  Lieut.  John  Budd  1st,  or  of  John  Budd 
2nd.  The  former  died  1669-70  (Baird's  History  of  Rye).  The  will  of  John  2nd, 
who  died  in  16S4,  names  his  "  Daughter  Mary,  the  now  wife  of  Christopher  Yongs 
(Liber  3,  N.  Y.  City  Wills).  Both  John  Budd  3rd,  and  his  sister,  Man-  Youngs, 
call  their  father  Lieut.  John  Budd  (Town  Records  II.,  pp.  255,  360.  3621.  Would 
it  be  unreasonable  to  suppose  both  John  1st  and  John  2nd  held  the  title?  The  elder 
John  is  known  to  have  been  of  that  rank  (New  Haven  Colonial  Re'cordst. 

Mary  (Budd)  Yongs,  widow  of  Christopher,  and  Benjamin,  son  and  heir  of  said 
Christopher,  give  quitclaim  deeds  for  land  at  Acquabock  (Town  Rec.  II.,  pp.  360-1). 
John  Budd,  3d,  confirms  to  his  sister  Mary,  widow  of  Christopher  Youngs,  and  her 
sons,  Christopher  and  John,  land  at  Ockebock  (Acquebogue).  The  census  of  169S 
gives  as  one  family,  "  Maty  Youngs  Junjr.  widdow — Christopher  Youngs  Junjr., 
Anna,  Phoebe,  and  Eliza  Youngs."  (The  senior  Mary  was  widow  of  Col.  John 
Youngs).  Anna  married  on  the  21st  of  February,  1704  5.  Richard  Brown  (MSS. 
Town  Records).  He  was  the  fourth  of  the  name.  Phcebe  became  on  the  loth  of 
December,  1717,  the  second  wife  of  Henry'1  Tuthill,  of  Acquebogue  (Henrv3,  John2, 
Henry1). 

Moore's  personal  annotated  copy  of  his  "  Indexes  of  Southold  Genealogy,"  give 
Anna  and  Phoebe  among  the  children  of  Christopher  and  Mary  (Budd)  Youngs,  the 
word  "  probably  "  before  their  names  being  erased. 

Are  we  justified  in  calling  Anna  (Youngs)  Brown  and  Phcebe  (Youngs)  Tuthill 
grandchildren  of  the  Rev.  John  Youngs,  or  are  we  not?  Let  every  reader  decide  for 
himself,  or  herself.  L.    l>.   A.

History  of  The  Military  Company  of  the  Massachusetts,  now  called 
The  Ancient  and  Honorable  Artillery  Company  of  Massachusetts  (1637- 
18S8).  By  Oliver  Aver  Roberts,  Historian  of  the  Company.  Vol.  I.,  1637-1738. 
Boston  :  Alfred  Mudge  and  Son,  Printers,  24  Franklin  St.      1895.     Cloth,  pp.  500. 

This  valuable  volume  is  dedicated  to  the  memory  of  Captain  Robert  Keayne  and 
his  23  comrades  who  founded  the  company.  This  History  was  ordered  in  1SS6,  and 
was  at  once  begun  by  Maj.  Ben:  Perley  l'oore  ;  his  death  interrupted  the  work  until 
it  was  taken  up  by  Mr.  Oliver  Ayer  Roberts,  of  Melrose,  who  succeeded  to  the  office 
of  Historian.  It  is  expected  that  there  will  be  four  volumes,  and  they  will  include 
sketches  of  6,000  members  as  well  as  the  history  of  the  company.  The  committee 
having  charge  of  the  work  are  Edward  Wyman,  chairman  ;  Albert  Alonzo  Folsom, 
Geo.  Henry  Allen,  \Ym.  Parker  Jones.  Henry  Walker.  The  first  chairman,  Capt. 
Jno.  Lindsay  Stevenson,  was  a  very  efficient  promoter  of  the  scheme  until  his  death. 
The  editor,  Mr.  Roberts,  deserves  praise  for  his  work  ;  the  preface  is  followed  by  the 
history  ;  the  thirty-four  illustrations  show  the  taste  ;  but  the  work  is  shown  by  the 
biographical  sketches.  There  is  a  complete  index  of  eleven  pages  in  double  column. 
Every  old  family  is  represented  in  this  noble  company,  and  hosts  of  the  best  people 
all  over  the  land  will  enjoy  the  results  of  this  work.

This  very  interesting  book  by  Charles  S.  Hall,  of  Binghamton,  N.  Y.,  is  some- 
thing of  a  departure  in  genealogical  literature,  in  that  it  aims  to  trace  all  the  ancestors 
of  a  certain  descendant  rather  than  all  the  descendants  of  a  certain  ancestor.  The 
author  has  endeavored  to  corroborate,  as  far  as  possible,  his  genealogical  data  by 
references  to  works  of  acknowledged  authority,  and  to  assist  the  reader  with  tables 
of  ancestors  both  paternal  and  maternal.  These  tables  are  an  innovation  in  the 
matter  of  genealogical  charts,  and  by  their  ingenuity  enable  the  reader  to  trace  with 
precision  and  rapidity  any  ancestor  in  any  generation.  The  opening  chapter,  entitled 
Introductory  Notes,\s  replete  with  interesting  facts  about  the  manners  and  customs  of 
our  Puritan  ancestors  in  general,  which,  though  not  especially  new,  are  yet  presented 
in  an  interesting  light. 

The  genealogical  sketches  are  compiled,  not  according  to  families,  but  by  genera- 
tions, and  begin  with  "  Cliauncy  de  Chauncy,  a  Norman  Nobleman  who  came  into 
England  with  William  the  Conqueror,  a.d.  1066,  from  Chauncy  near  Amiens.  France." 
The  maternal  ancestors  begin  with  Robert  de  Bulkeley,  the  first  of  the  name,  an  Eng- 
lish baron  of  the  time  of  King  John.  Following  this  same  scheme  the  author  has 
traced  the  succeeding  generations  and  has  interspersed  the  genealogical  information 
with  historic  anecdotes  relative  to  the  various  families  included,  and  with  biographi- 
cal sketches  of  real  interest. 

In  addition  to  these  four  hundred  and  forty  pages  of  genealogical  and  biographical 
data,  the  author  has  appended  the  descent  from  the  early  kings  and  ancient  nobility 
of  England,  Scotland.  France,  Germany,  Italy,  and  Spain,  of  Mary  Lvman  and  Sarah 
Chauncy  ;  the  former  in  the  nineteenth  generation  on  the  paternal  side,  the  latter  the 
wife  of  a  maternal  ancestor  of  the  eighteenth  generation. 

The  work  is  interesting  as  well  to  others  as  to  members  of  the  Hnll  family,  and 
does  justice  in  itself  to  the  time,  the  labor,  the  patience,  and  the  concentration  of 
thought  which  the  author  has  unquestionably  bestowed  upon  it.  c.

Lineage  of  the  Bowens  of  Woodstock,  Connecticut.  By  Edward  Augustus 
Bowen,  Cambridge,  Mass.  Printed  at  the  Riverside  Press,  iSq7.  6A  x  \o\. 
Cloth,  pp.  245. 

This  attractive  volume  is  illustrated  with  two  views  of  the  old  house  at  Burry 
Head,  the  mansion  at  Slade,  the  house  and  store  of  George  Bowen,  and  a  facsimile 
of  Griffith  Bowen's  petition  to  the  House  of  Lords  in  1654.  The  edition  is  limited 
to  250  copies,  this  being  number  75.  The  genealogy  proper  occupies  166  pages, 
and  comes  down  to  the  present  time,  including  some  of  the  ninth  generation,  where 
we  find  the  author  and  his  brother,  our  fellow  member,  Dr.  Clarence  Winthrop 
Bowen.  The  pedigree  charts  are  especially  full  and  interesting,  showing  pedigree 
of  Griffith  Bowen,  the  Bowens  of  Slade,  the  Bowens  of  Court  House;  the  ancestry 
of  the  authof  showing  many  of  the  lines  traced  through  seven  generations.  There  is 
a  good  double-column  index  of  thirteen  pages,  and  the  Appendix  furnishes  sketches 
of  more  than  a  hundred  of  the  ancestors  of  the  author,  with  their  families  ;  this  part 
will  prove  interesting  to  many  who  trace  their  lines  to  the  same  individuals,  and  also 
to  the  general  student,  who  will  recognize  many  leaders  who  have  made  their  mark 
in  their  day  and  generation,  and  have  left  honorable  names  as  leaders  and  reformers 
in  the  communuies  where  ihey  lived.  The  title  on  back,  "Bowens  of  Woodstock," 
is  sufficiently  full  and  comprehensive,  for  this  little  Connecticut  town  is  not  in  danger 
of  being  forgotten  so  long  as  this  family  gathers  the  greatest  and  best  people  of  the 
land  at  the  annual  patriotic  pilgrimage  within  its  borders,  and  this  family  has  earned 
the  right  to  be  known  as  The  Independent  Bowens. 

Bowman's  Ancestral  Charts,  copyrighted  1S96,  by  George  Ernest  Bowman, 
Boston,  Mass.,  is  similar  in  many  respects  to  that  prepared  by  this  Society  in  1S94. 
It  consists  of  seventeen  sheets,  the  first  showing  the  ancestors  for  four  generations, 
and  each  of  the  succeeding  sixteen  sheets  shows  four  additional  generations.  It  is  a 
very  good  arrangement,  smaller  and  cheaper  than  the  chart  adopted  by  this  Society, 
and  is  sold  at  fifty  cents  per  set. 

The  Pedigree  Charts  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society

those  who  fill  and  file  them  in  the  library,  the  object  being  to  have  the  ancestry  of  our 
members  in  convenient  and  uniform  shape  for  binding  and  preservation.  If  desired, 
a  new  blank  will  be  furnished  in  place  of  the  copy  filed.  The  price  is  seventy-five

MARTIN    VAN    BUREN,   WITH    A   SKETCH    OF   THE   VAN 
BUREN   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA. 


By  Frank  T.  Conkling. 


Biographers  of  Martin  Van  Buren,  eighth  President  of  the  United 
States,  have  had  much  to  say  of  him  as  a  politician,  statesman,  and 
executive.  They  tell  you  that  as  a  lad  he  was  unusually  bright  and 
promising;  that  his  schooling,  finished  at  the  age  of  fourteen,  advanced 
him  far  beyond  his  companions  of  like  age  ;  that  the  same  year  of  his 
leaving  school  he  began  the  study  of  law,  soon  becoming  actively  en- 
gaged in  politics,  and  was  but  a  youth  of  seventeen  when  selected  as  a 
delegate  to  the  Congressional  Convention  of  his  district.  Nature  having 
endowed  him  with  talents,  the  boy,  with  his  studious  disposition,  stability 
of  character,  and  untiring  perseverance,  became  father  of  the  man  of  state, 
the  magistrate  of  a  nation,  honored  and  beloved  in  life,  and  revered  in 
memory. 

Martin  Van  Buren  began  his  career  as  a  public  officer  at  the  age  of 
twenty-five  :  first,  as  Surrogate  of  his  county  (Columbia),  by  appointment 
of  Governor  Tompkins,  serving  for  five  years  from  the  year  1S08.  His 
last  term  had  no  more  than  expired  when  a  seat  in  the  Legislature  at 
Albany  was  open  to  him.  The  citizens  of  his  district  had  elected  him  to 
the  Senate  in  the  autumn  of  181 2,  where  he  remained  to  represent  them 
until  1821.  A  portion  of  this  time  (1815-1819)  he  also  served  the  State 
as  its  Attorney-General.  In  1821  he  was  chosen  to  the  United  States 
Senate,  and  again  in  1827,  but  resigned  January  15,  1829,  to  be  inaugu- 
rated Governor  of  New  York  State,  to  which  position  the  people  had 
elected  him  the  previous  November.  This  honor,  however,  was  of  short 
duration.  His  rare  accomplishments  in  statesmanship  had  made  him  a 
friend  and  counsellor  of  Jackson,  who  prevailed  upon  Mr.  Van  Buren  to 
become  Secretary  of  State  in  his  Cabinet,  then  in  the  course  of  organiza- 
tion. In  consequence,  he  resigned  in  March,  having  been  Governor 
but  about  two  months.  He  served  with  Jackson  during  his  first  admin- 
istration, but  as  a  matter  of  preference  resigned  from  the  Cabinet  during 
the  third  year  (June,  1831),  to  become  Minister  to  England.  He  was 
elected  Vice-President  the  following  year,  with  Jackson  as  President,  for 
his  second  term.  His  political  career  was  not  yet  ended.  He  was  des- 
tined for  a  yet  higher  sphere.  New  York  State  was  at  last  to  be  honored 
in  the  selection  of  its  gifted  son  for  the  Presidency,  the  first  and  only 
native  of  her  domain  to  have  been  elected  to  the  highest  office  in  the  gift 


122  Martin    Van  Bur  en  and  the    Van  Bur  en  Family,  [July, 

of  the  nation.*  It  is  distinctively  an  honor  to  the  Dutch,  who  were  the 
first  settlers  of  New  Netherland,  from  which  the  Colony,  and  afterward 
the  State  of  New  York  were  formed,  that  one  so  purely  of  their  blood 
should  have  been  the  one  selected  ;  and  the  Van  Buren  family  may  well 
feel  proud  of  the  fact  that  from  their  midst  was  thus  chosen  the  only  one 
of  Dutch  parentage  to  have  ever  so  represented  the  people  of  the  United 
States.  He  was  elected,  and  served  fur  four  years  from  the  4th  of  March, 
1837.  His  term  having  expired  in  March,  184 1 ,  and  having  been 
defeated  by  Harrison  for  a  second  term,  he  retired  to  "  Linden wald,"  a 
country  seat  he  had  purchased,  near  the  scene  of  his  birth  at  Kinderhook, 
in  the  County  of  Columbia,  where  he  remained  until  his  death,  which 
occurred  July  24,  1S62,  in  his  eightieth  year. 

But  little  is  said  by  biographers  of  the  ancestry  of  Martin  Van  Buren. 
They  do  not  seem  to  have  taken  a  genealogical  interest  in  him.  In  all 
probability  he  himself  could  not  go  back  of  his  grandfather  (Marten  Van 
Buren),  for  whom  he  [the  President]  was  probably  named,  and  who 
would  have  been  in  his  eighty-second  year  were  he  living  at  the  birth  of 
his  illustrious  grandson.  Jenkins  tells  an  anecdote  of  the  President  in 
his  "  Lives  of  the  Governors  of  the  State  of  New  York,"  bearing  on  the 
subject  of  his  ancestry,  which  may  be  interesting  here.  He  says  :  "  Dur- 
ing Mr.  Van  Buren's  mission  to  England,  it  is  said,  he  attended  one  of 
the  soirees  of  Queen  Adelaide,  at  which,  in  a  conversation  with  him,  she 
inquired  how  far  back  he  could  trace  his  ancestry.  '  As  far  back  as 
Kinderhook,  may  it  please  your  Majesty,'  replied  Mr.  Van  Buren  with 
the  grave  urbanity  characteristic  of  him.  Supposing  the  name  to  be  that 
of  some  distinguished  aboriginal  chieftain,  the  fair  descendant  of  a  long 
line  of  German  princes  paid  still  greater  deference  to  her  guest." 

Martin  Van  Buren  was  the  first  ot  his  name  to  receive  more  than 
local  prominence,  and  it  is  not  singular  when  understood  that  the  Van 
Burens  up  to  this  time  were  almost  entirely  a  family  of  farmers.  Thev 
were  of  the  sturdy  Dutch  stock  born  and  bred  to  the  cultivation  of  the 
soil,  and  caring  little  for  other  or  easier  occupation.  The  father  of  the 
President  (Abraham  Van  Buren)  was  one  of  the  few  who  had  digressed 
from  this  line  of  pursuit.  Historians  tell  us  that,  besides  being  a  modest 
farmer,  he  was  a  tavern-keeper  in  the  village  of  Kinderhook.  He  was 
nearly  forty  years  old  when  he  married,  having  found  favor  in  the  sight 
of  a  young  widow,  the  proud  possessor  of  three  children  by  her  deceased 
husband,  Johannes  J.  Van  Allen.  These  children  were  :  Marytje,  born 
1768  ;  Johannes,  born  1770  ;  and  James,  born  1773.  In  maidenhood 
this  lady  was  Maria  Goes  (or  Hoes  as  afterward  called),  daughter  of 
Johannes  Dirkse  Goes  and  Jannetje  Lawrense  Van  Schaick,  both  of 
whose  progenitors  were  early  Dutch  settlers.  Thus  the  ancestry  of  the 
President,  as  may  be  seen,  was  as  purely  Dutch  on  his  mother's  side  as 
will  be  shown  it  was  wholly  so  through  his  father. 

The  original  settler  of  the  Van  Buren  family  did  not  bear  the  name 
Van  Buren.  It  was  not  the  custom  when  he  came  to  America  in  the 
year  163  1  for  Netherlander  to  have  a  family  name,  except  in  rare  cases 
where  positions  of  prominence,  or  some  act  of  more  than  local  impor- 

*  Millard  Fillmore,  born  in  New  York  State,  was  elected  Vice-President,  and 
succeeded  Zachary  Taylor  as  President  upon  the  latter's  death  in  1S50.  General 
Arthur,  who  succeeded  Jas.  A.  Garfield  as  President,  although  a  resident  of  New 
York,  was  a  native  of  Vermont.      President  Cleveland  was  born  in  New  Jersey.

tance,  favorable  or  otherwise,  supplied  a  name  symbolical  of  the  particu- 
lar cause  of  prominence,  which  would  afterward  be  carried  down  to  pos- 
terity. The  Dutch  inhabitants  of  New  Netherland,  on  becoming  more 
familiar  with  the  manners  and  customs  of  the  English,  after  their  suc- 
cession in  1664,  began  to  adopt  family  surnames,  generally  taking  the 
name  of  the  place  from  which  they  or  their  parents  emigrated  in  Hol- 
land, using  the  prefix  "  Van,"  which  is  Dutch  for  the  words  of  ox  from. 
Thus  it  was,  no  doubt,  with  the  second  generation  of  the  Van  Buren 
family  in  America,  the  father  of  whom  was  Cornells'  Maessen  ;  Maes,  or 
Maas,  being  the  Christian  name  of  his  father,  the  suffix  "sen  "  or  "  se  " 
signifying  son.  This  manner  of  patronymic  was  a  custom  then  in  vogue 
among  the  Dutch  and  some  other  European  nationalities,  and  it  is  not 
yet  wholly  done  away  with  among  the  peasantry  of  those  countries.  To 
illustrate  this  custom  :  Marten2,  the  eldest  son  of  Cornelis  Maessen, 
made  his  will  in  1703,  written  in  Dutch,  in  which  his  name  was  signed 
"Marten  Cornelissen  van  Beuren,''  meaning,  Marten  son  of  Cornelis 
from  Buren. 

Cornelis1  Maessen  probably  either  emigrated  from  Buren,  a  village 
in  the  Province  of  Gelderland,  Holland,  or  was  a  native  of  that 
place.  At  any  rate,  he  sailed  for  America  in  the  vessel  "  Rensselaers- 
wyck  "  during  the  summer  of  1631,  having  with  him  his  young  wife, 
Catalyntje  Martense  (daughter  of  a  man  named  Marten),  and  at  least  one 
child,  a  son  named  Marten2,  who  deposed  in  later  years  that  he  was  born 
in  Houten,  a  village  but  a  few  miles  from  Buren.  A  second  son, 
Hendrick2,  it  is  said,  was  born  on  the  voyage.  They  settled  on  a  farm 
on  the  east  side  of  the  Hudson  River,  a  little  below  Greenbush,  at  a  place 
called  Papsknee.  The  farm  was  leased  to  Cornelis1  Maessen  by  Killian 
Van  Rensselaer,  who  had  been  granted  large  tracts  of  land  comprising 
the  larger  portion  of  the  present  Counties  of  Albany  and  Rensselaer, 
called  the  Colony  of  Rensselaersywck.  A  provision  of  the  grant  to  Van 
Rensselaer  required  bona  fide  settlement  by  him  ;  and  to  this  purpose 
he  sought  to  interest  the  agricultural  farmers  of  his  country,  offering 
them  considerable  inducement  to  take  up  and  cultivate  land  in  his 
American  colony.  Thus  began  the  fiist  actual  settlement  in  New  Neth- 
erland beyond  the  confines  of  Manhattan  Island  and  the  Wallabout  in 
Brooldvn.*  A  few  came  over  under  the  auspices  of  Van  Rensselaer  in 
1630,  forming  the  nucleus  of  his  colony.  Others  followed,  and  became 
the  progenitors  of  many  of  the  best  citizens  of  our  great  nation.  The 
rental  for  the  first  few  years  ranged  at  about  a  one-tenth  share  of  the 
products  raised.  Thus  in  1644  Van  Rensselaer  received  from  Cornelis1 
Maessen  one  hundred  bushels  of  wheat,  oats,  and  rye,  besides  a  few  peas, 
thus  indicating  a  yield  of  about  one  thousand  bushels. 

But  little  can  be  said  of  Cornelis1  Maessen.  The  few  years  that 
Providence  permitted  him  to  stay  in  the  country  of  his  adoption  were 
evidently  spent  in  a  quiet  and  unassuming  way.  Both  he  and  his  wife 
died  in  1 648,  and  it  is  recorded  that  they  were  buried  on  the  same  day.  It 
is  from  the  fact  of  these  early  and  probably  sudden  deaths  that  history 
reveals  the  names  of  the  children  of  the  second  generation  of  the  Van 
Buren  family  in  America.     Cornelis1  evidently  died  intestate,  and  before 

*  In  1623  a  settlement  was  undertaken  at  Fort  Orange,  but  was  soon  abandoned 
because  of  threatened  Indian  disturbances.  •

any  of  his  children  had  become  of  lawful  age  ;  for  we  find  them  in  1657 
under  the  guardianship  of  Teunis  Dirksen  (Van  Vechten)  and  Cornells 
Teunissen  (Bos),  who  also  were  appointed  trustees  of  the  estate.  The 
latter  came  over  with  Cornells1  Maessen  in  1631  as  his  farm-hand.  He 
afterward  became  a  trader,  and  at  one  time  was  Commissary  at  Fort 
Orange  (Albany). 

The  estate  ot  Cornells1  Maessen  consisted  in  part  of  property  in  New 
York  City  described  as  "  A  house  and  plantation  at  the  North  River  on 
the  Island  of  Manhattan  next  to  Wouter  Van  Twiller  and  Thomas  Hall." 
This  farm  was  purchased  of  Volckert  Evertsen,  October  24,  1646,  and 
afterward  sold  by  the  trustees  to  the  Hon.  Rutger  Jacobsen,  a  magistrate 
of  Beverwyck  (Albany),  forfifteen  hundred  guilders,  or  about  six  hundred 
dollars.  It  was  located  between  the  present  Christopher  and  Fourteenth 
streets,  with  boundaries  very  near  to  those  streets,  and  probably  having  a 
North  River  frontage.  Wouter  Van  Twiller  was  but  a  few  years  before 
Governor  of  the  Province  of  New  Netherland,  and  Hall  was  a  prominent 
merchant  in  New  Amsterdam. 

The  children  of  Cornells1  Maessen  as  mentioned  in  legal  papers  were  : 
i.  Marten2,  ii.  Hendrick2,  iii.  Maes2,  iv.  Styntje2,  and  v.  Tobias2.  Marten2 
and  Hendrick2  are  the  only  ones  of  the  family  through  whom  descend- 
ants of  Cornells1  Maessen  who  bear  the  name  Van  Buren  can  hope  to 
trace.  We  will  therefore  leave  them  for  the  present  and  first  dispose  of 
the  remainder  of  the  family. 

Maes2  Cornelisse,  for  some  reason  that  history  does  not  unfold, 
adopted  the  name  Bloemingdael.  There  is  sufficient  evidence  to  sub- 
stantiate the  claim  that  he  was  one  of  the  family  of  Cornells1  Maessen  ; 
yet,  while  the  other  children  (excepting  possibly  Tobias2,  who  may  have 
died  early)  in  later  years  were  known  as  Van  Buren,  neither  Maes2  nor 
any  of  his  family  ever  answered  to  the  name.  The  American  Blooming- 
dales  of  to-day  trace  their  ancestry  to  this  source,  and  there  can  be  no 
doubt  that  Cornells'  Maessen  was  the  original  ancestor  of  the  family. 
Maes2  married  Jacomyntje  Janse  (Gardiner)  and  Lad  children  :  Cornells, 
baptized  February  6,  16154  ;  Jan,  baptized  December  20,  16S5  ;  Geertruy, 
baptized  June  22,  1689  ;  Jacob,  baptized  April  6,  1701  ;  Jacomyntje, 
and  probably  others.  The  family  settled  in  Albany,  where  Maes  died 
November  27,  1704,  his  wife  having  preceded  him  nearly  three  years. 

Tobias2  Cornelisse,  if  he  married,  seems  not  to  have  left  issue.  His 
name  does  not  appear  after  1662. 

Styntje2  (Christina)  Cornelisse  married  in  1663  Dirck  Wesselse  (Ten 
Broeck),  a  merchant  and  trader,  who  became  a  very  prominent  and 
wealthy  man.  He  was  made  Recorder  of  Albany  under  the  charter 
granted  in  16S6,  served  as  Mayor  from  1696  to  1698,  and  was  major  of 
Col.  Pieter  Schuyler's  regiment  in  1700.  He  made  his  will,  February  4, 
1715,  probated  February  6,  1 7 1 S,  mentioning  his  wife,  Christina  :  sons, 
Wessel,  Samuel,  Johannes,  and  Tobias  ;  and  daughters,  Elsje  (wife  of 
Johannes  Cuyler),  Catalyntje  (wife  of  Johannes  Lissier),  Cornelia  (wife 
of  Johannes  Wynkoop),  Geertruy  (wife  of  Abraham  Schuyler),  Christina 
(wife  of  Johannes  Van  Allen),  Elizabeth  (wife  of  Anthony  Costers), 
Lidia  (wife  of  Volckert  Van  Vechten).  In  1663  Dirck  Wesselse  pur- 
chased of  the  heirs  of  the  renowned  Anneke  Jans  Bogardus  her  heme  in 
Albany,  from  which  she  was  buried  earlier  in  the  same  year.  Styntje2 
Cornelisse  was  buried  November  2S,  1729.

Hendrick  Cornelisse'2,  as  previously  mentioned,  was  probably  born  on 
the  voyage  of  his  parents  to  America.  If  he  did  not  occupy  the  original 
farm  left  by  his  father,  he  at  least  continued  residence  in  the  same  neigh- 
borhood. He  evidently  lived  very  quietly,  probably  not  shifting  from 
the  farm  on  which  he  first  settled.  His  three  sons  also  settled  in  the 
vicinity,  each  becoming  a  progenitor  of  many  Van  Burens.  He  was  a 
soldier  at  Fort  Cralo,  near  Papsknee,  during  the  Indian  outbreak  of 
1663.  He  and  his  wife  were  members  of  the  Reformed  Dutch  Church 
at  Albany  in  1683,  having  probably  joined  some  years  previously.  He 
was  deceased  in  1697,  which  year  a  census  was  taken,  naming  his  widow, 
Elizabeth,  as  head  of  a  family  then  consisting  of  herself  and  one  child. 
No  will  or  administrative  records  existing,  makes  the  task  of  family  col- 
lecting a  difficult  one,  especially  so  as  no  church  records  appear  to  have 
been  preserved  previous  to  the  year  1683.  However,  there  seems  ample 
proof  that  Hendrick2  Cornelisse  and  Elizabeth  his  wife  were  parents  of 
the  following  children  : 

i.    Gerritje*,  married,  about  1684,  Jacob  Jacobse  Schermerhorn. 
ii.   Maes3,   married,    first,    September   17,    1699,   Ariaantje  Van 
Weye  ;  second,  about   1 7 1 1,  Magdalena  Bogart.      He  had 
three  sons  by  his  first  wife  and  a  daughter  by  his  second. 
He  was  buried  at  Schodack,  April  14,  1734. 
iii.   Marritje1,  married,  March  21,  1695,  Cornells  Jacobse  Scher- 
merhorn. 
iv.   Cornelis%,  married,  January   27,  1703,  Hendrikje  Van  Ness, 
daughter  of  Jan  Cornelisse  Van  Ness.      By  her  he  had  ten 
children.     They  settled   at   Half-Moon,  north  of  Albany, 
where  he  was  a  freeholder  in  1720. 
v.   Pieter*,   married,  May  2,    1708,   Geertruy  Vosburg.      They 
were  the  parents  of  nine  children.

REV.  JOHN  BISHOP,  OF   THE  MASSACHUSETTS  AND 
CONNECTICUT   COLONIES,    1 640-1 695. 


By  Nathaniel  Holmes  Bishop,  of  Lake  George,  New  York. 


(Continued  from  Vol.  XXVIII.,  p.  92,  of  The   Record.) 

The  foreign  parentage  of  Dr.  John  Bishop  may  possibly  be  discovered 
through  the  following  clues  :  "Genealogical  Gleanings  in  England,"  by 
Henry  F.  Waters,  in  the  New  England  Historical  and  Genealogical  Regis- 
ter for  October,  1890.  There  can  be  no  doubt  that  I  have  found  here  the 
will  of  Mr.  Samuel  Lee  of  Bristol,  New  England,  written  just  before  he 
set  sail  from  England  and  proved  after  his  death  in  a  French  prison,  he 
having  been  captured  and  carried  into  St.  Maloes  while  on  his  voyage 
home  in  1691  : 

Will  of  Samuel  Lee,  gent. 

Samuel  Lee  at  this  present  time  inhabitant  of  Abbots  Langly  in  the 
County  of  Hartford,  gent.  3  December  1685,  proved  13  April  1692.  All 
my  lands,  tenements  and  hereditaments  whatsoever,  be  the  same  freehold 
or  copy-hold,  unto  Nathaniel  Hulton  of  Hornsey,  gent.,  and  Edward 
Horsman  of  Lincoln's  Inn,  gent.,  in  trust  to  raise  four  hundred  and  fifty 
pounds  to  be  given  and  paid  to  my  wife  Martha  if  surviving  and  also,  out 
of  the  rents  and  profits  to  pay  the  usual  interest  of  that  sum  yearly  during 
her  life,  in  lieu  of  dower,  otherwise  the  said  Martha  shall  not  take  or 
have  any  benefit  of  or  by  this  my  will.  As  for  the  overplus  of  the  money 
raised  and  such  of  the  estate  as  shall  not  be  sold  the  same  shall  be  paid, 
conveyed  and  divided  unto  and  amongst  my  four  daughters,  now  at  this 
present  through  God's  mere)'  alive  and  in  health,  Rebekah  Lee,  Anna 
Lee,  Lydia  Lee,  and  Elizabeth  Lee,  to  be  paid  and  conveyed  unto  them 
respectively  at  their  respective  ages  of  one  and  twenty  years  or  days 
of  marriage. 

To  my  daughter  Rebekah  my  manuscripts  in  Divinity  if  she  be  not 
disposed  in  marriage  before  this  will  take  effect.  To  Anna,  Lvdie  and 
Elizabeth  all  my  manuscripts  in  Natural  Philosophy,  Chemistry  or  Physick, 
or  of  any  the  Liberal  Arts  and  Sciences,  and  all  the  printed  books  in 
Chymical  Physick,  to  be  divided  equally,  share  and  share  alike,  the  eldest 
choosing  first,  excepting  one  manuscript  book  in  Octavo,  large,  with  black 
covers,  in  the  first  leaf  thereof  is  found  written  "  (Experimentoru  Liber 
III.)  "  which  I  give  and  bequeath  to  my  daughter  Elizabeth. 

The  said  Nathaniel  Hulton  and  Edward  Horsman  to  be  executors. 


130  Rev-  John  Bishop,   1640-1695.  [Ju'y> 

In  the  Probate  Act  Book  the  testator  is  called  "nup  de  Abbotts 
Langley  in  Com.-  Hertford  sed  in  regno  Galliae  Gen.  defti."     Fane,  70. 

W.  H.Whitmore  adds  to  the  above  :  "In  the  notes  to  Sewall's  Diary, 
Vol.  I.,  pp.  148-150,  I  collected  some  facts  relative  to  the  daughters  of 
Rev.  Samuel  Lee.     It  seems  certain  that 

Rebecca  married  John  Saffin  of  Boston, 

t    a-  .<      j  John  George,  "  " 

^'aia  (Rev.  Cotton  Mather,   " 

Anne  "  Henry  Wyrley,  "  New  Bristol. 

Elizabeth. 

"  I  noted  a  letter  dated  in  1728,  from  Dr.  Isaac  Watts  to  Mrs.  Kath- 
erine  Sewall,  diughter  of  John  George  and  Lydia  Lee.  Therein  he 
says,  '  Mr  Peacock  who  married  your  eldest  Aunt,  was  my  intimate 
friend,  Mrs  Bishop  and  Mrs  YVirley  were  both  my  acquaintance.'  It 
seems  probable  that  Elizabeth,  the  fourth  daughter,  married  a  Bishop. 
Rebecca  seems  to  have  been  the  oldest  daughter,  and  as  she  was  the  third 
wife  of  John  Saffin  and  quarrelled  with  him,  it  seems  very  probable  that 
after  his  death  in  17 10,  she  married  Mr.  Peacock.  I  do  not  see  the  rea- 
son why  Samuel  Lee.  is  termed  'gentleman  '  in  his  will — as  he  was  a 
clergyman,  Oxford-bred,  and  a  tutor  and  proctor  there." 

Mr.  Whitmore,  to  whom  New  England  genealogy  owes  so  much,  is 
correct  in  his  belief  that  the  fourth  daughter  of  Rev.  Samuel  Lee  married 
a  Bishop.  In  ordering  searches  at  Taunton,  Mass.,  the  following  was 
sent  me  :  I  find  whole  pages  of  the  given  names  of  Bishops  in  the  indices. 
The  greater  part  of  these  come  from  Edward  of  Salem  and  Rehoboth. 
In  Vol.  2,  page  159,  Bristol  County  Deeds,  John  Saffin  of  Bristol  and  his 
wife  Rebecca,  one  of  the  daughters  of  the  Rev.  Samuel  Lee  of  Bristol, 
dec,  John  George  and  his  wife  Lydia,  of  Boston,  another  of  the  daugh- 
ters, John  Saffin  as  the  agent  and  att'y  of  Henry  Wierly,  fellmonger,  now 
of  the  realm  of  England  and  Ann  his  wife,  another  of  the  daughters, 
and  said  John  George  as  agent  for  John  Bishop  of  London,  linen-draper, 
and  Elizabeth  his  wife,  youngest  daughter  of  the  Rev.  Samuel  Lee,  sell 
to  John  Sparhawk  of  Bristol,  minister  of  the  said  town,  the  estate  of  the 
Rev.  S.  Lee  in  Bristol,  on  Thames  St.;  deed  was  signed  Sept.  30,  1696. 

This  Bristol  was  in  the  County  of  Bristol  at  that  time  ;  it  is  now  in 
Rhode  Island.  I  find  none  of  these  names  in  Austin's  "  Genealogical 
Dictionary  of  Rhode  Island." 

In  the  letter  of  Dr.  Isaac  Watts  above  referred  to,  that  divine  writes  to 
the  wife  of  Major  Samuel  Sewell  :  "  Mr.  Lee,  your  venerable  grandfather 
was  my  pastor  in  my  younger  days  "  ;  and  in  speaking  of  Mr.  Lee's 
daughter,  Mrs.  Bishop,  he  adds  :  "  Long  absence  from  London  made 
me  a  stranger,  and  I  know  not  of  her  children." 

The  Thomas  and  John  Lake  mentioned  in  the  correspondence  be- 
tween Rev.  John  Bishop  and  Rev..  Increase  Mather  appeared  early  in 
Boston. 

Thomas  Lake  was  prominent  at  town  meetings  between  1656  and 
166 1.  As  a  property  holder  he  appears  frequently  in  the  Town  Records 
and  Boston  Book  of  Possessions.  Thomas  Snow  in  1667  sells  to  H. 
Usher,  Thomas  Lake,  and  P.  Oliver  his  old  dwelling  house,  "  on  which 
the  sign  of  the  Dove  is  fastened."  As  early  as  1645,  Thomas  Lake  and 
Thomas  Clark  held  a  power  of  attorney  to  sell  the  estate  of  David  Vale,  a 
brother  of  Elihu  Vale,  the  benefactor  of  Vale  College.

Richard  Hogg's  possessions  within  Boston,  a  house  and  garden,  were 
sold  to  John  Lake  in  1645,  and  Lake  sold  the  same  to  Thomas  Wiborne 
in  1648. 

In  the  fourth  series  of  the  Massachusetts  Historical  Collection,  Vol. 
VII.,  p.  469,  Theophilus  Eaton  writes  to  John  Winthrop  from  New 
Haven,  July  5,  1654  : 

"  Having  heard  by  many  how  our  good  God  hath  blessed  your 
indeavors.  and  lately  to  Mrs.  Bishop.  Governor  Winthrop  cured  Mrs. 
Bishop  of  an  illness."  There  are  many  descendants  of  Rev.  John  Bishop 
now  living,  but  I  have  not  yet  been  informed  of  any  effort  being  made  to 
trace  his  descent  to  the  present  time.

COL.    JOHN    GORHAM'S    "WAST    BOOK"  AND   THE    GOR- 
HAM   FAMILY. 

There  has  recently  come  to  light  at  Newburyport,  Mass.,  a  quaint 
memorandum  book  of  Col.  John  Gorham,  who  was  at  the  siege  of  Louis- 
burg.  On  the  cover  is  written  "  Wast  Book  belonging  to  Jno.  Gorham 
began  in  Louisburg  April  20,  1745.''  We  give  the  genealogical  notes 
contained  therein  in  full  :

had  been  used  to  Whaling  att  Long  Island — came  to  Barnstable  and  to 
Cape  Codd  or  Barnstable  Bay  then  abounded  in  Whales  and  my  Grand-

1  The  fortress  of  Louisburg,  which  was  built  by  the  French,  was 
captured  by  the  English  and  Colonial  forces,  June  17,  1745.  The 
preparations  for  this  war  were  made  in  New  England  during  the  previous 
winter.  Gen.  Sir  William  Pepperrell  was  in  command.  Admiral  Sir 
Peter  Warren  commanded  the  fleet.  There  were  two  brigadier-generals 
— Samuel  Waldo  and  Joseph  Dwight.      It  was  usual  then  for  the  general

officers  to  command  regiments,  and  the  field  also  commanded  the  rank- 
ing companies.  General  Pepperrell  commanded  the  first  regiment  of  the 
Massachusetts  Colony,  Waldo  the  second,  Jeremiah  Moulton  the  third, 
Samuel  Willard  the  fourth,  Robert  Hall  the  filth,  Sylvester  Richmond, 
Jr.,  the  sixth,  and  Shubael  Gorham  the  seventh  regiment,  captain  of  the 
first  company,  with  John  Gorham  as  lieutenant-colonel  and  captain  of 
the  second  company.  This  last  regiment  was  posted  on  Light  House 
Point. 

2  Savage  says  John  was  son  of  Ralph,  born  in  England,  baptized  in 
Benefield,  Northamptonshire,  January  28,  1621  ;  married  in  1643  Desire, 
eldest  daughter  of  John  Howland.  The  colonel  was  probably  in  error 
in  this  name.  Some  suppose  Ralph  returned  to  England.  John  How- 
land  was  one  of  the  Mayflower  pilgrims,  as  was  Elizabeth  Tilley,  her 
father  and  his  wife.  He  was  representative  for  Plymouth,  1 64 1 ,  '46,  '47, 
'48,  '49,  '50,  '51,  '52,  '53,  '54,  '55,  '58,  01,  '63,  '66,  '67,  and  '70.  He 
was  selectman  many  years.  In  1634  he  was  commander  in  what  was 
called  the  Hocking  affair,  where  the  latter  was  killed.  He  was  assistant 
to  the  Governor,  1633,  '34,  '35.  In  1627  he  was  one  of  eight  Undertak- 
ers who  assumed  the  debis  and  management  of  the  colonv.  They 
had  : 

i.    John,  born  February  24,  1622-3  ;  married,  October  26,  165 1, 

Mary,  daughter  Robert  Lee. 
ii.    Desire,  born  1624  ;  married,  1643,  John  Gorham. 
iii.   Hope,  married,  1646,  John  Chipman. 
iv.  Elizabeth,  married,  1649,  Ephraim   Hicks  ;  second,  July   10, 

1651,  James  Dickinson, 
v.   Jabez,  married  Bethia,  only  daughter  Anthony  Thatcher, 
vi.   Joseph,  married,  September  13,  1664,  Elizabeth,  only  daugh- 
ter Thomas  Southworth  ;  second,  Elizabeth  Raynor. 
vii.    Lydia,  married  James  Brown, 
viii.    Hannah,  married  Nathaniel  Bosworth. 
ix.    Ruth,  married,  1664,  Thomas  Cushman. 
x.   Isaac,  married  Elizabeth,  daughter  Geo.  Vaughan. 

3  It  would  be  interesting  to  learn  the  why  Gorham  went,  and  the 
de-tination  and  particulars  of  the  .journey,  and  it  is  not  improbable  that 
something  more  may  be  discovered. 

4  These  are  nearly  in  the  order  of  birth,  only  the  sons  are  named 
first.     The  dates  were  : 

i.   Desire,  born  April  2,  1644,"  Plymouth  ;  died  June  30,  1700, 

aged  36.

iii.   Elizabeth,  born  April  2,  1648,  at  Marshfield. 
iv.    James,  born  April  2  or  28,   1650.

6  Desire  Gorham  married  Capt.  John  Hawes,  October  7,  1661.  He 
was  son  of  Mr.  Edmond  Hawes,  who  came  from  London  via  Southamp- 
ton in  1635,  and  died  June  9,  1693,  aged  about  So.  Capt.  John  died 
November  11,   1 701,  a  widower.      Issue:

The  cause  of  Capt.    Hawes's  death  is  new,  and  we  would  be  glad  to 
know  why  his  leg  was  cut  off. 

6  The  report  has  been  that  Capt.  John  Gorham  died  in  the  service  of 
a  fever  and  was  buried  at  Swansea,  February  5,  1676.  He  had  been 
lieutenant  of  the  Barnstable  troop  in  the  Dutch  war,  1673.  June  24, 
1675,  ne  was  at  Mount  Hope  in  Philip's  War;  June  28,  at  Swansea  ; 
at  Sugar  Loaf  Hill  in  August.  In  October  he  writes  :  "  Have  been  in 
the  field  fourteen  weeks."  Was  captain  second  company  colony,  Octo- 
ber 4,  1675,  an^  >n  December  commanded  his  company  in  the  Great 
Swamp  fight,  Narragansett  Fort,  December  19,  and  was  buried  as  above 
stated  before  he  reached  home,  aged  fifty-four.  We  know  the  Indians 
picked  off  the  officers,  but  this  is  the  first  account  I  have  seen  which 
makes  his  death  the  result  of  a  wound  rather  than  exposure.  His  widow- 
administered  his  estate  and  died  October  13,  1683,  at  Barnstable. 
Moore  says  six  brave  captains  were  killed  ;  viz.,  Davenport,  Gardiner, 
Johnson.  Gallop,  Seily,  and  Samuel  Marshall.  Lieutenant  Upham  was 
mortally  wounded,  and  Captain  John  Gorham  of  Barnstable  died  of  a 
fever  on  the  expedition.  It  may  be  we  have  discovered  another  wound 
which  resulted  fatally,  another  death  to  be  added  to  the  Swamp  fight. 

7  These  officers  do  not  agree  with  the  list  given  by  Rev.  Geo.  M. 
Bodge  in  his  "Soldiers  in  King  Philip's  War,''  to  wit  :  John  Gorham, 
captain  ;  Jonathan  Sparrow,  lieutenant  ;  William  Wetherell,  sergeant. 
Isaac  Barker  may  have  been  ensign  ;  there  is  no  one  named  for  that  office 
in  the  list.  It  is  possible  the  writer  had  records  and  did  not  rely  entirely 
on  tradition.      We  give  both  as  we  find  them. 

*  Lieut. -Colonel  John  Gorham,  son  of  Captain  John,  was  born  in 
Marshfield,  February  20,  1651-52;  married,  February  16,  1674,  Mary  Otis, 
who  was  baptized  March  14,  1654.  He  was  with  his  father  in  King 
Philip's  War,  held  the  rank  of  captain  in  the  expedition  under  Sir  Wil- 
liam Phipps  to  Canada  in  1690,  and  in  the  expedition  in  1696  under 
Major  Benjamin  Church,  and  was  lieutenant-colonel  and  second  in  com- 
mand in  the  expedition  of  1703-4  under  Colonel  Church.  He  died 
December  9,  1716.

1897-]  Genealogy  of  the  Bell  Family.  jc? 

GENEALOGY   OF  THE   BELL   FAMILY. 


By  John  Valentine  Hecker. 


In  the  latter  part  of  October,  1640,  a  company  of  Wethersfield  men 
purchased  from  the  New  Haven  Colony  a  tract  of  land  in  Connecticut, 
binding  themselves  by  an  agreement  to  remove  to  the  new  plantation  by 
the  1 6th  of  May,  1641. 

The  earliest  records  of  this  Plantation,  which  was  at  first  called  Rip- 
powam,  but  afterward  Stamford,  are  still  preserved  in  the  town.  Among 
the  first  entries  it  is  stated  "that  in  a  full  meeting  of  the  company  in- 
tending to  come  hither  the  same  spring,  every  man  was  severally  con- 
sidered of,  and  what  quantity  of  land  was  meet  for  each  man  determined 
of,  the  man  under  consideration  absenting  himself  while  his  case  was  in 
hand,  who  when  called  in  again  was  demanded  of,  if  so  much  gave  him 
content,  and  so  satisfaction  was  by  every  one  acknowledged,  and  they  set 
down  the  number  of  acres  to  each  in  proportion  followeth." 

In  this  distribution  of  land  in  the  new  settlement,  Francis  Bell  re- 
ceived seven  acres. 

As  his  name  does  not  appear  on  the  Wethersfield  records  with  the 
names  of  the  other  pioneers  who  came  in  the  spring  of  1641  to  Stamford, 
it  is  supposed  by  Huntington,  in  his  "History  of  Stamford,"  that  "he 
was  still  quite  young."  This  conclusion  does  not  seem  reasonable,  since 
Francis  Bell  brought  with  him  to  Stamford  his  wife  Rebecca,  and  Jona- 
than his  son,  born  September,  1641,  was  the  first  white  child  born  in 
the  town. 

From  the  town  records,  and  also  the  family  record  in  the  ' '  Old  Bible, " 
which  is  still  preserved  and  in  the  possession  of  some  of  his  descendants, 
it  appears  that  the  children  of  Francis1  Bell  by  his  wife  Rebecca  were  : 

2.  i.  Jonathan2,  born  September,  1641. 

3.  ii.   Rebecca2,  born  August,  1643. 

4.  iii.   Mare2,  born  May,   1646. 

On  the  arrival  of  the  founders  of  the  new  settlement  at  the  place  of 
their  future  residence,  Francis  Bell  at  once  became  prominent  in  the 
affairs  of  the  town. 

At  the  first  meeting  held  in  1641,  he  and  Mathew  Mitchell  were 
chosen  "to  lay  out  house-lots,  order  the  manner  of  assigning  them,  and 
rectify  whatever  is  amiss."  October  27,  1641,  he  and  Andrew  Ward 
were  elected  to  represent  the  new  settlement  at  the  General  Court,  their 
title  being  "  Honorable  members  from  Rippowam,"  while  to  them  was 
intrusted  the  ordering  of  the  affairs  of  the  town.  Two  years  later  he  was 
chosen  to  form  a  military  company  in  the  town  and  commissioned  Lieu- 
tenant by  the  General  Court.  In  1644  Lieut.  Francis  Bell  was  appointed 
delegate  "  to  journey  to  Boston,  to  find  one  Rev.  John  Bishop,  and  per- 
suade him  to  minister  unto  the  people  so  that  they  might  not  be  scat- 
tered." In  1653  he  was  chosen  Representative  a  second  time  to  the 
General  Court,  which  position  he  filled  for  eight  consecutive  years.  After 
nearly  half  a  century  of  active  and  honorable  service  to  the  community, 
Lieut.  Francis  Bell  died  January  8,  1689.  His  Will,  proved  March  n, 
1690,  is  on  Record  at  Fairfield,  Ct. ,  and  on  p.  116  of  the  1st  Book  of 
Records  is  an  inventory  of  his  estate,  amounting  10^317  12s.  Rebecca, 
wife  of  Francis,  died  May  7,  1684.

2.  Jonathan2,  son  of  Francis  and  Rebecca,  was  born  at  Stamford,  Sep- 
tember, 1 64 1.  Not  only  was  he  a  worthy  successor  of  his  distinguished 
sire,  but  was  fortunate  enough  to  have  been  the  first  white  child  born  in 
the  town.  For  fourteen  years  he  was  Selectman  of  the  town,  and  in 
1670  was  elected  Representative  to  the  General  Court,  in  which  legislative 
body  he  represented  Stamford,  with  few  interruptions,  during  a  period 
of  twenty-six  years.  In  1672  he  was  appointed  Lieutenant  of  the  Stam- 
ford Military  Company,  and  in  1698  commissioned  Captain  by  the  Gen- 
eral Court,  directing  him  to  take  charge  of  the  "ammonision  of  the 
town,"  and  ordering  that  he  should  "find  a  suitable  place  for  it  in  the 
Meeting  House."  Captain  Jonathan  Bell  was  prominent  in  religious  as 
well  as  civil  and  military  affairs,  as  it  appears  from  the  church  records 
that  he  was  chosen  "  to  treat  with  the  Rev.  John  Davenport  for  his  set- 
tlement in  the  town  as  minister  of  the  Gospel,  to  take  charge  of  the 
Stamford  Church."  Captain  Jonathan  died  March  11,  1699.  His  Will, 
recorded  at  Fairfield,  shows  the  value  of  his  estate  as  ^"456,  as  follows  :

jc6         The  Beekman  Family  in  New  York  and  New  Jersey.        [July, 

THE  BEEKMAN,  OR  BEECKMAN,  FAMILY  IN  NEW  YORK 
AND   NEW    JERSEY. 


By  Gansevoort  Irwin  Allen. 


The  compiler  hereof,  not  unlike  others  who  have  engaged  in  genea- 
logical research,  at  first  thought  the  task  of  tracing  the  Beekman  an- 
cestry to  the  time  of  the  Revolutionary  War  would  be  a  mere  trifle. 
But  unfortunately  the  records  were  much  scattered,  and  it  was  only  by 
persistent  inquiry  that  the  lineage  herein  was  completed.  He  was  for- 
tunate enough  to  get  trace  of  two  Bibles  that  had  been  in  the  Beekman 
family  since  the  Revolutionary  War,  and  from  these  pages  he  obtained 
data  to  link  the  broken  chain.  Having  progressed  thus  far,  the  tempta- 
tation  to  complete  the  record  was  too  strong  to  resist.  Although  the 
record  is  still  incomplete,  it  is  unquestionably  correct  ;  and  now  it  re- 
mains for  the  present,  or  possibly  future,  generations  to  compile  the 
records  of  the  unrecorded  descendants  of  the  Revolutionary  patriot, 
Johannes  Beeckman.  It  has  been  stated  that  the  Beekman  family 
were  distinguished  from  the  Beeckmans,  but  we  are  unable  to  obtain 
any  evidence  to  prove  this  assertion,  and  believe  it  to  be  an  erroneous 
statement. 

It  is  a  fact,  however,  that  Wilhelm  Beeckman,  who  came  to  America 
in  1647,  spelled  his  name  as  did  Marten  Beeckman,  who  landed  in 
1638  ;  and  there  is  abundant  evidence  to  substantiate  this  statement  ; 
perhaps  the  best  evidence  is  the  will  of  the  former.  vWhat  relation 
they  bore  to  each  other  we  are  unable  to  say  ;  however,  are  strongly  of 
the  belief  that  all  the  Beekmans  in  America  were  originally  Beeckmans. 

Maarten  Beeckman,  or,  as  now  spelled,  Beekman,  came  to  America 
in  1638,  and  settled  at,  or  near,  Albany,  N.  Y.  He  was  a  blacksmith, 
in  an  age  when  all  work  in  iron  was  done  by  hand,  from  a  nail  to  an 
iron  plough  or  cannon.  He  died  in  this  country  prior  to  June  21, 
1677.  He  married  Susannah  Jans,  and  had  at  least  three  children  : 
two  sons,  Johannes  and  Hendrick,  and  one  daughter,  Metie.  Hen- 
drick,  the  second  son  (date  of  birth  unknown),  married  Annetje, 
daughter  of  Peter  Quackenbos,  or,  as  now  spelled,  Quackenbush,  and 
resided  a  number  of  years  at  Schodack,  near  Albany.  In  1710,  No- 
vember 13th,  Octavo  Coenraats,  a  merchant  of  New  York  City,  deeded 
to  Hendrick  Beeckman,  the  above-named  person,  two  hundred  and 
fifty  acres  of  land  on  the  Raritan  River,  in  the  County  of  Somerset, 
N.  J.  It  was  part  of  a  thousand  acre  tract,  bought  by  Coenraats  of 
Peter  Sonmans,  by  deed  dated  January  27,  1706,  and  part  of  a  two 
thousand  three  hundred  acre  tract  conveyed  to  Sonmans  by  deed 
dated  October  20,  1695,  from  the  proprietors  of  East  Jersey.  This  old 
deed  to  Hendrick  Beeckman  was  never  recorded,  and  is  now  in  the 
possession  of  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Beekman  Vredenburgh,  who  still  owns 
part  of  the  land  described  in  this  deed,  which  she  inherited  from  her 
father,  Benjamin  Beekman,  and  her  mother,  Cornelia  Beekman.  The 
father  and  mother  were  both  Beekmans,  and  first  cousins.  Marten,  son 
of  Hendrick,  born  16S5  ;  married,  June  21,  1724,  Elizabeth,  daughter 
of  Samuel  Waldron,  of  Haarlem,  N.  Y.  ;  died  October  27,  1757.     His

Waldron  were  the  parents  of  five  children,  three  sons  and  two  daughters:

wise spelled  John),  born  November  5,  1741  ;  married,  July  30,  1769,

THE   BLAUVELT   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA. 


By  Rev.  David  Cole,  D.D. 


So  far  as  I  yet  know,  the  first  painstaking  effort  to  discover  the 
American  start  of  this  family  was  made  by  myself.  Its  results  were  given 
in  my  Cole  Family  Book,  published  in  1876.  I  saw  clearly,  and  stated 
on  p.  74,  that  the  family  which  first  began  to  use  its  surname  Blauvelt 
with  decision  at  Tappan  after  1686.  had  before  its  settlement  in  that 
locality  been   known  only  by  its  patronymic  Gerretsen.     The  father  had 

been  a  Gerret .      I  said  that  perhaps  he  himself  had  never  come  to 

this  country.  My  article  having  a  side  bearing  only  upon  my  own 
family  book,  I  did  not  carry  my  research  far  beyond  this  discovery,  and 
I  was  led  upon  a  false  trail  and  came  to  a  fabe  conclusion  in  seeking  for 
Hendrick  Blauvelt  (really  a  son  of  the  original  Gerret),  one  of  whose 
descendants,  Daniel  H.  Blauvelt  of  Rockland  Co.,  had  married  into  the 
Cole  line. 

Five  years  later,  Mr.  James  Riker,  in  his  History  of  Harlem,

note  on  this  name  (p.  407),  and  I  have  since  learned  also  that  Hon. 
William  Nelson  of  Paterson,  N.  J.,  has  the  line  clearly,  and  will  bring  it 
out  in  work  he  is  preparing  for  publication.  Members  of  the  Blauvelt 
family  have  long  been  trying  to  find  their  American  start.  It  will  be  the 
end  of  this  paper  to  give  it  as  it  is  now  clearly  known.  In  so  appropriate 
a  connection,  I  wish  to  acknowledge  my  indebtedness  to  the  indefatigable 
Secretary  of  the  Holland  Society,  and  also  to  put  on  record  my  tribute  to 
the  memory  of  the  author  of  the  invaluable  volumes  on  Newtown  and 
Harlem.  He  has  brought  hundreds  of  busy  genealogists  under  obli- 
gation to  him  for  his  toil  upon  family  and  community  lines. 

"Captain  William  Blauvelt"  appears  as  a  witness  at  a  New  York 
baptism,  November  18,  1646.  I  have  found  no  earlier  appearance  of  the 
name  Blauvelt  on  the  Dutch  records  in  any  connection,  and  I  do  not 
find  any  other  appearance  of  it  on  these  records  before  1705.  I  have  not 
been  able  to  identify  this  man,  but  what  will  be  said  below  will  show  a 
connection  to  which  he  must  have  belonged. 

Several  first  settlers  at  Tappan  called  themselves  and  were  called 
Gerretsens  on  their  arrival,  but  soon  after  taking  up  their  new  home 
revealed  themselves  as  Blauvelts. 

The  civil  history  of  the  settlement  begins  with  the  grant  of  a  large 
tract  of  land  to  sixteen  men  on  the  24th  of  March,  1686.  The  land, 
known  as  "The  Tappan  or  Orangetown  Patent,"  coincided  with  the 
present  town  of  Orangetown.  Named  among  the  patentees  were  Hm  bert 
Gerretse  and  Johannes  Gerretse.  By  1702.  several  families  had  gathered 
upon  the  patent.  A  census  of  these  families,  taken  in  that  year,  is  still 
preserved,  and  on  it  we  have  the  names  of  Hendrick  Gerretse  and  Mary 
his  wife,  Johannes  Gerretse  and  Cathrin  his  wife,  and  Isaac  Gerretse  and 
Maria  his  wife. 

The  church  history  begins  with  an  organization  by  eleven  members  on 
the  24th  of  October,  1694.  All  records  of  the  church  that  day  organized 
are  still  in  existence  without  a  break  down  to  1724.  On  them,  from 
their  very  start,  we  have  the  names  of  Hendrick  Blauvelt  and  Mary 
Waldron,  Johannes  Gerretse  Blauvelt  and  Catie  Cornelisse,  Isaac  Gerretse 
Blauvelt  and  Maria  Pieters,  who  are  the  very  persons  given  as  Gerretses 
only  with  the  land  patent  and  the  civil  census  mentioned  above. 

It  is  now  known  perfectly  who  all  these  Gerretses  were.  Their  written 
history  in  America  begins  with  the  following  entry  made  upon  the  New 
York  marriage  register  in  1646  (see  N.  Y.  Gen.  and  Biog.  Record, 
Vol.  VI.,  p.  37)  : 

"den  7  May — Gerrett  Hendricksen,  y.  m.  van  Deventer,  en  Marie 
Lamberts,  y.  d.  uyt  New  Netherlands" 

What  this  means  is  that  Gerret  Hendricksen  and  Marie  (in  later 
records  always  called  Marretje)  Lamberts  were  married  in  New  York,  May 
7,  1646,  that  neither  of  them  had  been  married  before,  and  that  Gerret 
(son  of  Hendrick)  was  from  Deventer,  while  Marie  had  been  born  in 
New  Netherland.  Probably  her  birth  date  was  not  far  from  1625. 
Riker  says  she  was  a  daughter  of  Lambert  Huybertsen  Moll  of  Bushwick, 
L.  I.,  and  that  her  sister  Geertje,  baptized  in  New  York,  September  6, 
1648,  married  Hans  Jacob  Harding  of  Berne,  Switzerland.  He  also 
says  that  Gerret  Hendricksen  died  in  New  York  about  1684.  Of  course, 
his  family  had  taken  the  surname  Blauvelt  in  their  own  country,  but 
there  is  no  evidence  and  no  probability  that  he  himself  ever  made  use  of 


160  The  Blanvelt  Family  in  America.  [July, 

it  at  any  time  during  his  life.  On  all  records  lie  is  Gerret  Hendricksen 
only.  Surnames  struggled  for  a  foothold  among  the  masses  during  the 
first  century  of  the  Dutch  in  New  York. 

The  children  of  Gerret  Hendricksen  and  Marretje  Lamberts  (Moll), 
eight  in  number,  and  including,  as  has  been  stated,  all  the  five  Gerretses 
of  the  early  Tappan  civil  and  church  records,  were  :  Hendrick,  baptized 
August  9,  1648;  Huybert,  May  13,  1657;  Johannes,  April  9,  1659; 
Margrietje,  September  25,  1661  ;  Abram,  January  17,  1663  ;  Isaac, 
January  27,  1666  ;  Maria,  January  28,  1668  ;  and  Marretje,  March  26, 
1670.  There  are  six  children  of  a  Gerret  Hendricksen  baptized  between 
1648  and  1657,  but  no  mother's  name  is  given  with  them,  and  I  cannot 
be  sure  that  they  were  of  this  family.  Of  one  of  the  six,  however,  viz., 
Lysbeth,  who  married  Daniel  Barcolo,  May  4,  1700,  it  is  worth  while 
to  say  that,  with  two  baptisms  recorded  in  1705,  she  is  given  once  as 
Elizabeth  Blauvelt,  and  once  as  Elizabeth  Gerretse  Blauvelt.  The  pre- 
sumption is  that  she  was  Marretje's  child. 

I  give. next  the  eight  children  thus  brought  to  light,  with  their  mar- 
riages as  far  as  found,  all  taken  from  the  New  York  Records.  For  the 
three  with  no  marriage  dates  given,  several  other  church  records  have 
been  searched,  but  in  vain. 

1.        i.   Hendrick  Gerretse,  married  Marretje  Waldron,  September  20, 
1673. 

Huybert  Gerretse,  married  Willemtje  Ariens,  April  15,  1679. 

Johannes  Gerretse,  married  Catie  Cornelisse  (date  not  found). 

Margrietje  Gerrets,  married  Lambert  Aertsen,  April  9,  1682. 

Abram  Gerretse,  married  Grietje  Minne,  April  8,   1691. 

Isaac  Gerretse,  married  Maria  Pieters,  January  2,  1693. 

Maria  Gerrets  (no  marriage  found). 

Marretje  Gerrets  (no  marriage  found). 
From  the  five  brothers  on  this  list,  all  Rockland  Co.  and   Bergen  Co. 
Blauvelts  have  descended.      The  following  brief  sketches  of  them  will 
have  special  interest  for  all  who  belong  to  their  lines  : 

1.  Hendrick  Gerretse  was  not  one  of  the  sixteen  purchasers  of  the 
Tappan  land  patent.  He  and  his  wife  probably  remained  in  New  York 
till  after  the  baptism  of  their  last  child.  Their  children,  all  baptized  in 
the  city  between  1674  and  1692,  were:  Marretje  (died  early),  Marretje 
(married  Cosyn  Haring,  one  of  the  land  purchasers),  Jan,  Harman,  Ger- 
ret, Annetje,  Joseph,  Abraham,  and  Isaac.  That  the  parents  finally  took 
up  their  residence  in  Tappan,  however,  is  shown  by  the  member  record, 
which  has  them  received  into  the  church  communion  as  Hendrick  Blau- 
velt and  Marretje  Waldron  on  the  25th  of  October,  1695. 

2.  Huybert3  Gerretse  was  one  of  the  original  land  purchasers,  but  there 
is  no  evidence  that  he  ever  lived  in  Tappan.  His  children.  Gerret, 
Ariaen,  Marretje,  Dievertje,  Huybert,  and  Theunis,  were  all  baptized  in 
New  York  between  i6Soand  1695.  I  have  not  found  Huybert's  name 
written  with  Blauvelt.  But  his  son,  Gerret  Huybertse  Blauvelt,  married 
Katrina  Meyer  at  Tappan,  January  12,  1704,  and  his  daughter,  Dirckje 
Huyberts  Blauvelt,  married  Jan  Lubbertse  Westervelt  at  Hackensack, 
and  had  all  her  children  baptized  in  that  place,  except  one,  who  was 
baptized  at  Tappan. 

3.  Johannes  Gerretse  was  also  one  of  the  land  purchasers.  And  he  was 
one   of  the   founders  and  first  members  of  the  church,  received  October

24,  1694.  His  name  is  entered  on  the  church  books  sometimes  as 
Johannes  Blauvelt,  and  sometimes  as  Johannes  Gerretse  Blauvelt.  He 
was  a  deacon  in  1695,  and  again  in  1701.  He  and  his  wife  Catie  Cor- 
nelisse  had  ten  children  baptized  at  Tappan  between  1694  and  1714. 
Their  names  were  Cornelis,  Margrietje,  Johannes,  Jacobus,  Lea,  Rachel, 
Katrina,  Elizabeth,  David,  and  Sara.  The  father,  Johannes  Gerretse 
Blauvelt,  was  still  living  in  1729,  with  four  others  of  the  original  land 
purchasers,  one  of  whom  was  Cosyn  Haring,  given  above  as  a  son-in-law 
of  his  brother  Hendrick.  The  five  thus  spared,  in  that  year  donated 
ninety-seven  acres  of  their  land  to  the  Tappan  church.  It  does  not  ap- 
pear that  Mrs.  Blauvelt  (Catie  Cornelisse)  was  ever  received  into  the  com- 
munion of  the  church. 

4.  Abram  Gerretse  was  baptized  at  the  residence  of  Governor  Stuyvesant 
on  his  Bouwerie,  or  farm  (N.  Y.  Gen.  and  Biog.  Record,  Vol.  VII., 
p.  22).  He  was  not  one  of  the  land  purchasers.  His  wife,  Grietje 
Minne  (or  Minneley),  became  a  member  of  the  church,  October  23, 
1695.  His  own  name  is  not  on  the  member  roll,  but  this  is  a  clerical 
omission,  as  he  was  a  deacon  in  1705  and  an  elder  in  171 1.  He  and  his 
wife,  his  brother  Johannes  and  his  wife,  and  Jan  Woedt  (wife  not  given), 
presented  the  first  children  offered  for  baptism  in  the  Tappan  church, 
on  the  25th  of  October,  1694.  Abram  Blauvelt  and  Grietje  Minne  had 
eight  children — Ammarelitje,  Marretje,  Johannes,  Abram,  Elizabeth, 
Grietje,  Gerret,  and  Jannetje — baptized  at  Tappan  between  1694  and  1709. 

5.  Isaac  Gerretse  was  not  among  the  land  purchasers.  His  wife,  Maria 
Pieters,  was  received  as  a  church  member,  October  23,  1695,  but  does 
not  appear  again  on  any  church  record.  Isaac  Gerretse  Blauvelt,  how- 
ever, with  a  second  wife,  Sarah  Van  Schyven,  has  eight  children — Isaac 
(died  early),  Maria,  Jacobus,  Brechje,  Dievertje  (died  early),  Dievertje, 
Isaac,  and  Marretje — baptized  at  Tappan  between  1725  and  1740. 

The  surnames  originally  taken  by  Hollanders  in  their  own  country 
(at  what  precise  time  I  do  not  know,  but  before  any  Hollander  appeared 
in  America)  were  of  course  assumed  willingly  by  very  many  who  appreci- 
ated the  need  for  clearer  family  identification,  for  which  they  were  devised 
and  legally  ordained  to  meet.  But  history  shows  that  the  masses  would 
not,  or  at  least  did  not,  take  hold  of  them  with  heart.  Down  to  the  closing 
years  of  their  first  century  in  America,  most  of  the  Dutch  families  had 
scarcely  used  them  at  all  in  address  or  church  records,  but  had  held  firmly 
to  their  patronymic  designations  only.  This  fact  makes  the  study  of  the 
beginnings  of  our  oldest  Dutch  families  somewhat  difficult,  but  it  also 
imparts  to  it  a  deep  interest  and  even  an  exciting  zest.  Certainly  many 
families  yet  in  the  dark  as  to  their  American  starting-points  might  have 
their  life  mystery  solved  if  they  could  find  within  themselves  interested 
members  with  resolution  enough  to  undertake,  and  time  enough  to  carry 
out,  the  necessary-  search.

To  the  philologist  as  well  as  to  the  genealogist,  there  are  few  names 
that  afford  more  interest  than  that  of  the  family  whose  pedigree  forms  the 
subject  matter  of  this  compilation.  It  is  to  the  Indo-Germanic  tongue, 
the  speech  of  those  who  belonged  to  the  East  Aryans  before  their  separa- 
tion from  the  parent  stock,  that  it  owes  its  derivation,  coming  from  the 
verbal  root  Mec-,  Mezh-,  to  be  able  or  strong.  Its  variants  may  be  seen  in 
the  following  :  Old  English,  mikel,  muchel,  mochel,  mukel ;  Anglo-Saxon, 
micel,  mycel ;  Old  High  German,  mihil,  mihhil ;  Old  Norse,  mofik ;  Ice- 
landic, mikill,  mykill ;  Gothic,  mikils ;  Latin,  ma  gnus  ;  Greek,  ueyaS. 
Furguson,  in  his  "Teutonic  Name  System,"  says  :  'Another  root  having 
the  meaning  of  great,  is  Mic,  or  Muc,  what  Fo»termann  takes  to  be  the 
simple  form  of  Gothic  Miklo;  Scotch,  Muckle  or  Meikle;  modern  German, 
Mucke,  Mugge;  French,  Michy,  Miche,  Mouge;  English,  Mickle."  In  his 
"  English  Surnames, "  he  says  :  "Derived  from  statue  we  have  Mickle, 
Muckle,  meaning  great ;  a  surname  both  Anglo-Saxon  and  Scandinavian." 
William  Arthur,  in  his  Etymological  Dictionary,  says:  "Meikle,  from 
Saxon  Muchel,  Scotch  Muckle  or  Mickle,  meaning  big."  Again,  in 
Patronymica  Britannica  :  "  Mickle,  "Scotch^big,  large  of  body  ;  Anglo- 
Saxon,  Mucel,  Muckle,  meaning  great,  big.  Avery  ancient  name.  An 
eminent  Anglo-Saxon  nobleman  whose  baptismal  name  was  ^Ethelred 
bore  the  additional  designation  of  Mucel  and  used  the  latter  in  legal 
documents — 'Ego  Mucel  dux  Consensi,  etc'  " 

It  was  his  daughter,  by  Edburg,  a  lady  of  the  blood  royal  of  Mercia, 
who  married  Alfred  the  Great,  King  of  England.*  It  is  evident,  there- 
fore, that  in  the  trite  saving,  "  Many  a  Mickle  makes  a  Muckle,  "the 
commonly  inferred  definition  of  the  word  Mickle  to  be  that  of  Utile, 
is  a  positive  perversion  of  its  real  meaning.  The  parpahrase,  "  In  the 
union  of  the  great  there  is  power,"  or,  possibly,  as  we  use  it,  "In  union 
there  is  strength,"  embodies  and  conveys  the  idea  not  only  more  clearly, 
but  much  more  correctly. 

It  will,  for  the  purpose  of  this  article,  the  tabulating  of  all  the  de- 
scendants of  the  founder  of  the  family  in  this  country  to  date,  be  sufficient 
to  state  that  I  am  led  to  believe  the  Meikles,  though  for  many  generations 
domiciled  in  Scotland,  were  originally  of  Norse  origin,  the  discussion 
and  proof  of  which  is  reserved  for  a  more  extended  memoir  of  the  family, 
now  in  contemplation. 

I.  James1  Mickle,  or  Meikle,  the  founder  of  the  family  in  this  country, 
was  born  at  Linlithgow,  Scotland,  March  8,  1760,  the  son  of  Archibald 
and  Margaret  Johnston  Meikle.  He  was  third  in  descent  from  the  James 
whose  youngest  son,  the  Rev.  Alexander  Meikle,  was  father  of  the  poet 
William  Julius  Meikle,  the  translator  of  the  "  Luciad  "  of  Camoens,  which 
secured  for  him  the  honor  of  an  election  to  the  Royal  Academy  of  Por- 
tugal ;  author  also  of  "Almada  Hill,"  "  Eskdale  Braes,"  "  Cumnor 
Hall,"  upon  which  Sir  Walter  Scott  founded  his  romance  of  "Kenilworth  "; 
and  others  of  more  or  less  note.  James,  like  the  poet,  adopted  the 
change  in  spelling  of  the  name.  He  married,  July  1,  17S5,  Janet, 
daughter  of  John,  and   granddaughter  of  John    Drummond   Campbell.

It  was  her  kinsman,  John  Campbell,  who  was  naval  secretary  to  Sir 
Horatio  Nelson  on  H.  M.  S.  Vanguard  when,  as  Rear  Admiral  of  the 
Blue,  he  fought  the  battle  of  the  Nile.  The  John  Campbell  who,  in  1704, 
was  editor  and  proprietor  of  the  "Boston  News  Letter,"  the  first  news- 
paper published  in  the  United  States,  is  also  claimed  to  be  a  kinsman  of 
hers,  but  just  in  what  degree  I  have  as  yet  been  unable  satisfactorily  to 
determine.  James1  came  to  this  country  in  1790  and  settled  in  Orange 
County,  N.  Y.  Ill-health  and  increasing  financial  difficulties  finally 
closed,  on  November  12,  18 19,  a  life  of  persistent  effort  but  frustrated 
hope,  it  being  reserved  for  another  to  retrieve  the  fortunes  of  the  family.

in  life  he  turned  his  attention  to  mercantile  pursuits,  and  associated  him- 
self with  Messrs.  George  B.  Miller  &  Co.,  a  firm  well  known  in  this  city 
half  a  century  ago.  By  his  characteristic  ability  and  uprightness,  quali- 
ties which  marked  his  course  throughout  his  whole  life,  he  finally  entered 
the  firm.  "While  in  the  midst  of  a  prosperous  business  career  he  was 
tendered  the  Democratic  nomination  for  Mayor  of  New  York,  and  polled 
a  vote  nearly  as  large  as  the  combined  votes  of  his  three  opponents, 
April  14th,  1846.  He  was  offered  a  renomination,  which  he  declined. 
He  was  not  a  professional  politician  :  to  him  public  office  was  a  public 
trust.  Retiring  from  the  Mayoralty,  he  again  assumed  charge  of  his 
business,  which  in  his  later  years  was  conducted  under  the  firm  name  of 
A.  H.  Mickle  &  Sons.  His  position  in  the  mercantile  world  was  very 
high  and  he  possessed  the  esteem  and  confidence  of  the  merchants  and 
financial  men  of  the  city."*  He  died  suddenly  from  a  stroke  of  apo- 
plexy in  the  fifty-eighth  year  of  his  age.  Thus  ended  in  its  fulness  a 
career  of  honorable  record.  A  gentleman  in  every  sense  of  the  word, 
he  claimed  the  respect  and  love  of  those  who  knew  him  ;  the  just  re- 
wards of  a  life  well  spent.  In  October,  1890,  Bay  Lawn  Mansion,  at 
Bayside,  L.  I.,  the  home  and  birthplace  of  nearly  all  of  the  present  gen- 
eration of  the  Mickle  blood,  was  destroyed  by  fire.  The  New  York 
World  in  an  article  shortly  after,  entitled  "Glorious  Memories — Recol- 
lections of  the  Early  Days  of  the  Old  Bay  Lawn  Mansion,"  said  that  its 
total  destruction  by  fire  merits  more  than  a  passing  notice,  and  that,  "to

those  of  us  who  can  look  back  so  far  will  recall  many  scenes  of  charming 
hospitality  that  graced  its  marble  halls.  It  was  situated  on  one  of  the  most 
commanding  elevations  in  that  section  of  Long  Island,  embracing  a  very 
extensive  view  of  the  surrounding  country,  bay  and  sound.  During 
Col.  Mickle's  lifetime  were  gathered  there  many  persons  of  distinction  in 
social  and  political  life,  who  enjoyed  his  genial  friendship,  including  the

Gen.  McCullough,  the  Von  Gerolts  of  Washington,  D.  C. ;  the  Boilleaus 
and  many  Long  Island  families.  Many  such  pleasing  recollections 
cluster  around  this  lovely  spot.  Many  patriotic  gatherings  on  the  glori- 
ous Fourth  of  July,  when  the  younger  folk  were  taught  to  keep  in  bright 
memory  the  deeds  of  their  forefathers  by  song  and  story.  Col.  Mickle's 
children  by  his  first  wife  were  descended  from  the  Miller  family,  who  gave 
six  brothers  to  the  War  of  the  Revolution.  The  ancestors  of  the  second 
flock  were  more  peacefully  inclined,-  being  of  Quaker  stock,  but  not  the 
less  patriotic.  The  Lawrences  and  Townsends  helped  to  guide  the 
struggling  ship  of  state  in  the  Colonial  Assemblies  and  Councils.  The 
Townsends  were  owners  of  the  Sterling  Iron  Works,  and  cast  the  first 
ordnance  ordered  by  the  Colonial  Government,  and  forged  the  big  chain 
that  was  put  across  the  Hudson  at  West  Point  to  keep  the  British  ships 
from  sailing  up  to  Albany.  We  can  hardly  afford  to  let  such  memories 
fade  away  with  the  dying  embers  of  the  destructive  fire  which  swept  down 
this  stately  home."  The  Bay  Lawn  property  was  part  of  the  original 
Lawrence  grant  under  the  patent  of  Gov.  Kiefc  in  1645. 

Mr.  Mickle  married  first,  on  June  i,  1827,  Caroline  Augusta,  daugh- 
ter of  George  Benjamin  Miller.  She  was  born  May  7,  18 10  ;  died 
March  15,  1849  ;  and  granddaughter  of  Benjamin  Miller,  born  1738  ; 
died  March  16,  1795.  Both  George  and  Benjamin  Miller  are  interred 
in  the  old  Miller  family  vault  in  St.  Paul's  churchyard,  New  York  City. 

He  married  secondly,  on  February  18,  1S51,  Mary6  Nicoll,  born  Jan- 
uary 9,  1822;  died  August  12,  1896;  daughter  of  Judge  Effingham"

THE    STITES    FAMILY. 


By  Edmund  J.  James,  Chicago. 


There  have  been  inquiries  from  time  to  time  in  The  Record  con- 
cerning various  members  of  the  Stites  family.  I  have  collected  from 
different  sources  the  following  items  relating  to  the  early  history  of  this 
widely  spread  family,  which  may  be  of  use  to  those  interested  in  the 
subject. 

There  is  a  brief  list  of  items  in  Littell's  "  Early  Families  of  the 
Passaic  Valley  "  under  the  name  Stites.  This  is  catalogued  in  Munsell's 
Index  as  Stiles  instead  of  Stites.  Many  of  the  references  to  the  Stiles 
in  current  genealogical  mention  should  be  to  the  Stites  instead.  I  find 
in  looking  over  old  deeds,  wills,  etc.,  that  it  is  a  very  common  mistake 
for  the  copyist  to  write  Stiles  instead  of  Stites,  the  former  being  a  much 
more  common  name  than  the  latter.  There  is  also  a  brief  account  of 
some  portion  of  the  Stites  genealogy  in  Clayton's  "  History  of  Union 
and  Middlesex  Counties,  N.  J.,"  page  362  and  following  ;  as  also  in 
the  "  History  of  Hunterdon  and  Somerset  Counties,  X.  J.,"  by  the 
same  person.  The  ''Annals  of  Hemstead,  L.  I.,"  Hatfield's  "History 
of  Elizabeth,  N.  J.,  "  "  Records  of  Mt.  Bethel  (N.  J.)  Baptist  Church  "; 
"  Lydia  Sexton's  Autobiography,"  Dayton,  O.,  1882,  page  54  ;  Brink, 
McDonough  &  Co.  's  "  History  of  Marion  and  Clinton  Counties,  Illinois," 
page  78,  and  Reuben  Guild's  "  Life  of  James  Manning  "  are  also  to  be 
consulted.  Otherwise  the  chief  sources  are  wills,  deeds,  and  other  doc- 
uments in  the  records  of  Central  New  Jersey,  especially  of  Union,  Mid- 
dlesex, and  Somerset  Counties,  and  in  Southern  New  Jersey,  of  Cape 
May  and  Atlantic  Counties.  The  early  history  of  Cincinnati  (one  of 
whose  founders  was  Major  Benjamin  Stites)  and  of  the  surrounding 
country  contains  many  references  to  members  of  the  same  family,  as 
also  the  annals  of  Frankfort,  Henderson,  Louisville,  Ky.,  Clinton  and 
St.  Clair  Counties,  111.,  and  various  counties  in  Missouri  and  Kansas, 
where  later  descendants  of  the  family  have  settled. 
1.  John  Stites,  M.D.,  born  in  England,  1595.  Came  from  England  as 
surgeon  to  a  band  of  colonists  in  the  time  of  Cromwell.     Settled  at  first

the  age  of  one  hundred  and  twenty-two.  According  to  family  tradition, 
he  was  a  man  of  powerful  physique  and  wonderful  physical  endurance. 
When  nearly  one  hundred  years  old  he  walked  forty  miles  in  one  day 
to  visit  some  relatives.     Children  :

2.  Richard2  (John1)  was  at  Hemstead,  L.  I.,  as  early  as  1657,  where 
his  name  is  in  the  list  of  those  having  cattle  in  Rocaway  Neck  Pasture. 
He  appears  twice  as  plaintiff  in  lawsuits,  January  21,  1660,  and  Feb- 
ruary 3,  1675.  He  appears  in  1685  among  those  who  paid  a  tax  to 
defray  the  expenses  of  obtaining  a  patent  for  lands  in  Hemstead.  The 
amount  of  the  tax  was  £2%  per. acre,  and  he  was  assessed  for  152 
acres.     Cf.  "Annals  of  Hemstead,  L.  I.,"  pp.  24,  28,  38.     Sons  :

seven  hundred  acres  of  land  on  the  south  side  of  the  road  and  west  of 
the  Rahway  River,  where  he  built  a  log  house,  there  being  but  few 
dwellings  in  the  town  at  that  time.  He  died  at  Springfield  in  1727, 
May  13,  and  was  buried  in  his  own  private  burying  ground.  This 
burying  ground,  known  as  the  Revolutionary  burying  ground,  is  on 
the  Mathias  Denman  farm  at  Springfield.  John's  tombstone,  died

The  original  coat-of-arms  brought  to  this  country  by  Edward2  Middle- 
ton,  the  colonist,  was  for  many  years  at  Middleton  Place,  on  the  Ashley

of  Stockeld,  Yorkshire,  England,  a  very  old  family.  The  quarterings  on 
the  Carolina  shield  prove  that  they  were  obtained  through  the  heiresses

THE    DAUGHTERS  OF   DEGORY  PRIEST. 


By  E.  S.  Atwood. 


The  object  of  this  is  to  show  that  there  has  been  an  obscuration  of 
the  history  of  the  daughters  of  Degory  Priest  by  a  majority  of  geneal- 
ogists. 

Degory  Priest  married  Sarah  Allerton,  sister  of  Isaac  Allerton  and 
widow  of  John  Vincent,  in  Leyden,  161 1.  He  left  his  wife  and  chil- 
dren there  and  came  in  the  "  Mayflower,"  dying  at  Plymouth  very  soon 
after  his  arrival,  January  1,  1621.  His  widow,  November  13.  1621, 
married  again,  in  Leyden,  Godbert  Godbertson,  a  Hollander,  who  had 
been  admitted  to  membership  in  the  Pilgrim  Church  at  Leyden.  He 
came  to  this  country  in  1623  in  the  "  Ann,"  bringing  his  wife  Sarah 
(Degory  Priest's  widow),  and  Mary  and  Sarah  Priest,  two  daughters  of 
Degory  Priest.  (Davis'  "Landmarks,"  Part  II.,  p.  209.)  After  arrival 
in  this  country,  in  the  process  of  time  his  name  became  Anglicized  to 
Cuthbert  Cuthbertson. 

Genealogists  for  the  most  part  have  stated  that  Phineas  Pratt  married 
Mary,  the  daughter  of  Cuthbert  Cuthbertson  ;  and  that  John  Coombs 
married  Sarah,  the  daughter  of  Cuthbert  Cuthbertson.     There  is  no 


1 897.  ]  The  Daughters  of  Degory  Priest.  169 

official  record  of  marriages  in  Plymouth  Colony  previous  to  1643,  and 
the  above  statement  is  based  upon  the  following,  taken  from  page  159, 
vol.  i,  of  the  published  Plymouth  Records.  It  is  a  report  of  proceed- 
ings before. the  Governor  and  assistants,  held  August  3,  1640,  and  reads 
as  follows  : 

"  For  as  much  as  it  appeareth  by  the  testimony  of  Joshua  Pratt, 
and  otherwise,  that  the  two  acres  of  upland  lying  at  Wellingsly  Brook, 
on  the  north  side  of  the  lot  given  to  Godbert  Godbertson,  were  given  by 
the  said  Godbert  Godbertson  to  John  Combe,  gent.,  and  Phineas 
Pratt,  in  marriage  with  their  wives,  his  daughters,  the  court  doth  con- 
firm the  said  two  acres  unto  the  said  John  Combe  and  Phineas  Pratt, 
their  heirs  and  assigns  forever." 

We  know  that  Phineas  Pratt's  wife  was  named  Mary,  because  he 
united  with  her  in  a  deed  to  John  Smith  of  land  sold  at  Charlestown, 
1662-3  ;  and  that  John  Coombs'  wife  was  named  Sarah,  because  he 
also  united  with  her  in  a  deed  of  land  to  Gov.  Prence. 

Of  course,  this  statement  is  perfectly  correct.  It  omits  to  say,  how- 
ever, what  was  the  fact,  that  Sarah  and  Mary,  the  wives  of  John 
Combe  and  Phineas  Pratt,  were  Cuthbert  Cuthbertson's  stepdaughters, 
and  not  his  own  children.     This  is  readily  shown  as  follows  : 

1st.  It  is  beyond  the  bounds  of  probability  that  Mrs.  Cuthbertson 
would  have  two  Marys  and  two  Sarahs  amongst  her  children.  Mary 
and  Sarah  were  the  daughters  of  Degory  Priest. 

2d.  This  case  was  tried  August  3,  1640,  and  related  to  events  that 
had  occurred  some  years  previously,  and  yet  Cuthbertson  had  been 
married  only  18  years,  8  months,  and  20  days  at  this  time — not  long 
enough' to  have  married  off  two  daughters  of  his  own. 

Again,  a  foot-note  on  page  122,  vol.  7,  Mass.  Historical  Collections, 
2d  series,  says  : 

"Phineas  Pratt  (joiner)  was  in  Plymouth  about  1623.  He  removed 
to  Charlestown,  and  was  living  there  1677.  He  married  at  Plymouth 
the  daughter  of  Cuthbert  Cuthbertson,  1630." 

Davis,  in  his  "  Ancient  Landmarks  of  Plymouth,"  page  347,  says  that 
in  1632  John  Coombs  and  wife  Sarah,  daughter  of  Cuthbert  Cuthbert- 
son, sold  land  to  Thomas  Prence.  As  Cuthbertson  was  married  in 
162 1,  it  is  perfectly  evident  that  these  were  not  his  own  daughters,  but 
the  children  of  his  wife  and  daughters  of  Degory  Priest. 

3d.  The  division  of  cattle,  May  22,  1627,  gives  the  name  of  every 
man,  woman,  and  child  in  Plymouth  on  that  date.  The  grouping  is  by 
families.  In  the  2d  lot  (that  of  Isaac  Allerton),  Cuthbertson's  family  is 
shown  to  consist  of  himself,  his  wife  Sarah,  a  son  Samuel,  and  two  step- 
daughters, Mary  Priest  and  Sarah  Priest.      He  had  no  other  daughters. 

Finally,  we  know  that  Phineas  Pratt  lived  many  years  in  Charles- 
town, Mass.,  and  died  there  about  1690.  Wyman,  in  his  "  Genealogies 
and  Estates  of  Charlestown,"  page  771,  says  that  his  wife  was  Mary 
Priest  ;  and  again,  on  page  773,  says  that  Mary,  daughter  of  Degory 
Priest  of  Plymouth,  married  Phineas  Pratt.  These  are  the  squarest 
kind  of  statements,  and  fit  the  facts  exactly.  None  of  the  other  state- 
ments made  bear  sifting.  In  the  face  of  all  the  evidence,  there  cannot 
be  a  doubt  that  Phineas  Pratt  married  Mary,  daughter  of  Degory 
Priest  ;  and  that  John  Coombs  married  Sarah,  the  other  daughter  of 
Degory  Priest.

Berry — Lawrence. "New  Jersey,  June  4.  (1737). — On  Thursday  last  the 

wife  of  Capt.  Thomas  Lawrence  of  Hackensack  was  buried,  aged  Ninety-four  ;  Her 
husband  follow'd  her  to  the  Grave,  at  the  age  of  Ninety-seven,  is  a  hearty  man,  and 
walks  as  upright  as  a  Youth." — (The  Boston  Weekly  Nexus  Letter,  June  19-25,  1737, 
— quoted  XL,  N.  J.  Archives,  Vol.  I.,  p.  502.) 

The  deceased  was  Francina  Berry,  daughter  of  Capt.  John  Berry,  at  one  time 
Deputy  Governor  of  New  Jersey.  She  was  married,  first,  to  Lieut.  Michael  Smith, 
the  first  High  Sheriff  of  Bergen  County,  N.  J.,  and,  second,  to  Capt.  Thomas 
Lawrence  of  the  same  county.  (An  account  of  her  family  will  be  found  in  Vol.  XV. 
of  The  Record,  p.  52  et  seq.)  Mrs.  Lawrence,  being  ninety-four  years  old  at  her 
death,  was  born  in  1643.  She  had  an  older  sister,  Sarah,  and  an  older  brother, 
Richard;  hence  her  father,  Capt.  Berry,  was  probably  married  not  later  than  1639-40. 
If  of  age  at  his  marriage,  then  he  must  have  been  born  in  or  before  161S,  and  there- 
fore aged  ninety-six  or  upwards  at  his  decease  in  1714. 

Capt.  Lawrence  was  the  eldest  son  of  Maj.  Thomas  Lawrence  of  Newtown, 
L.  I.,  who  is  described  by  Mr.  Riker  (Annals  Newtown,  p.  2S3)  as  "the  youngest 
of  the  three  brothers"  John,  William,  and  Thomas  Lawrence.  They  came  out  in 
the  ship  Planter  in  1635  ;  John  then  aged  seventeen  (born  in  1618),  William  aged 
twelve  (born  in  1623),  and  their  sister  Maria  aged  nine  (born  in  1626).  Thomas 
came  out  later.  His  eldest  eldest  son,  Capt.  Thomas,  being  ninety-seven  in  1737, 
must  have  been  born  in  1640.  If  Maj.  Thomas  had  attained  his  majority  at  the 
time  of  his  marriage  (in  1639?),  then  he  was  born  in  or  before  1617,  which  would 
make  him  the  eldest  of  the  three  brothers.  If  he  was  the  youngest  he  could  not  have 
been  born  until  1624,  and  would  have  been  only  sixteen  years  old  at  birth  of  his 
eldest  child,  Capt.  Thomas,  which  seems  improbable.

DUTCH  Records. — Judge  Clearwater  has  received  from  Mr.  Dederick  Versteig, 
who  is  translating  the  old  Dutch  records  of  this  county,  another  instalment  of  the 
translation,  which  will  be  published  in  the  Freeman  within  a  few  days,  and  will 
prove  to  be  entertaining  and  instructive  to  those  of  its  readers  who  are  interested  in 
the  ancient  history  of  the  town.  It  contains  a  curious  picture  of  life  in  Kingston  two 
hundred  years  ago,  and  gives  an  account  of  the  ante-nuptial  contracts,  speculation  in 
slaves,  the  bestowal  of  coats-of-arms,  the  expectation  of  inheriting  estates  in  Holland, 
and  the  testamentary  disposition  of  property  by  the  old  Dutchmen  who  founded  this

Conkling. —  In  looking  over  the  number  of  your  interesting  Record  for  July, 
1896,  giving  the  genealogy  of  the  Conkling  family  of  East  Hampton,  Long  Island,  I 
■  observed  a  gap  in  the  family  history,  which  it  is  in  my  power  to  supply. 


172  Corrections.  [Ju')'> 

The  marriage  of  Amy  Colliding  to  John  Stretton  (p.  155)  is  staled,  hut  their 
issue  is  not  given.  Their  daughter  Amy  married  Nathan  Dayton,  born  in  1703 
in  New  Haven,  or  East  Hampton.  They  had  eight  children,  one  of  whom  was  Dr. 
Jonathan  Dayton,  of  Elizabethtown,  New  Jersey  ;  another  was  Elizabeth,  who  mar- 
ried Elisha  Conklin,  of  East  Hampton,  Long  Island  ;  and  a  daughter  of  this  mar- 
riage. Amy,  married  Dr.  Isaac  Morse,  of  Elizabelhtown,  New  Jersey. 

Mrs.  Nancy  Wade  Halsted  (a  granddaughter  of  Dr.  Morse,  who  some  years  since 
explored  the  record  offices  and  graveyards  of  East  Hampton)  furnished  the  writer 
the  following  notice  of  Mrs.  Isaac  Morse's  history  :  "  Her  maiden  name  was  Amy 
Conklin,  daughter  of  Elizabeth  Dayton  and  Elisha  Conklin,  the  latter  a  grandson 
of  Lion  Gardiner,  of  Gardiner's  Island,  through  his  daughter  Mary,  who  married 
Elisha  (?  Jeremiah)  Conklin,  father  of  Elisha  Conklin,  her  paternal  ancestor.  Her 
mother,  Elizabeth  Dayton,  was  the  half-sister  of  Gen.  Elias  Dayton,  and  full  sister 
of  Doctor  Jonathan  Dayton,  of  Elizabethtown,  New  Jersey.  Amy  Conklin  was 
born  at  East  Hampton,  Long  Island  ;  but  was  visiting  her  uncle.  Doctor  Dayton, 
when  the  British  blockaded  New  York.  The  blockade  continued  seven  years,  and 
the  blond  lassie  of  sixteen  had  meanwhile  married  Isaac  Morse,  medical  student  in 
her  uncle's  office;  and  when  peace  was  declared  she  returned  to  her  mother  with 
three  children — Joseph,  Nancy,  and  Nathan  Morse.  Four  other  children  blessed 
their  marriage  :  Elizabeth  (died  young),  Margaret  Dayton,  and  Elizabeth,  now  the 
only  surviving  child,  living  in  Louisiana."  I  may  add  that  Nathan  Morse,  son  of 
Isaac  and  Amy  Morse,  married  Martha  Crawford  Nicholls.  Their  son,  Isaac 
Edward  Morse,  married  Margaretta  Smith  Wederstrandt.  Their  son,  Alexander 
Porter  Morse,  married  Ellen  Clarke.   - 

Will  you  kindly  publish  this  note,  so  that  it  may  meet  the  eye  of  Mr.  Merserau, 
the  biographer  of  the  Conklings,  and  of  others  who  may  be  interested  in  verifying  its 
accuracy?  ALEXANDER   PORTER   MORSE. 

Dennis,  or  Dennes. — The  following,  which  is  from  the  Woodbridge,  New 
Jersey,  Records,  may  not  be  an  answer  to  the  query  in  the  April  Record,  but  may 
furnish  a  clue  to  the  information  wanted. 

Among  the  early  settlers  in  Woodbridge  were  Robert,  John,  and  Samuel  Dennes. 

They  were  probably  grandsons  of  Thomas  Dennes,  who  came  with  Winthrop  in 
1630. 

Samuel  Dennes  by  his  wife  Mary  had  four  children,  born  in  Woodbridge  between 
1672  and  16S4;  viz.,  Samuel,  Robert,  Sarah,  and  Jonathan.  Samuel,  Sen.,  married 
the  widow  Crow  in  16S9.     Jonathan,  his  son,  died  in  16S8. 

Samuel,  Jr.,  married  Mary  Crowell,  December  3,  1695,  and  had  Tonathan.  Sarah, 
Mary,  and  Samuel,  born  prior  to  1707. 

A  Jonathan  Dennes  by  his  wife  Rachel  had  eight  children,  born  in  Woodbridge 
between  1677  and  1692;  viz.,  Elizabeth,  Mary,  Rachel,  Jonathan,  Joseph,  Hannah, 
Charles,  and  Sarah.  And  a  John  Dennes,  probably  a  son  of  the  elder  John  Dennes, 
married,  April  8,  1694,  Rachel  Hull,  daughter  of  Benjamin  and  Rachel  Hull,  of 
Piscataway,  New  Jersey,  and  had  Joseph,  Rachel,  John,  and  Eunice,  born  prior  to 
1701. 

I  might  add  that  the  last  syllable  of  the  name  was  always  written  with  an  c  ; 
and  both  Samuel  Dennes  and  his  son  Samuel  wrote  it  Dennes,  with  an  old-fashioned 
e  that  cannot  be  mistaken  for  an  undotted  i.

CORRECTION'S. 


NlCOLL  Keteltas. — As  all  errors  in  published  genealogies  should  be  pointed 
out,  I  send  you  the  following.  The  error  is  in  the  book  entitled  "  The  Descendants 
of  John  Nicoll  of  Islip,  England,  who  died  A.D.  1467,  by  Edward  Holland  Nicoll," 
1S94.  On  page  2S  the  following  will  be  found,  "  Eleventh  Generation  the  children 
of  William  Nicoll  3rd.  and  Joanna  D'Honneur  were  :  Charity  born  27th  March  1753

&c.  The  expression  "  but  let t  no  issue  "  is  ambiguous,  from  which  two  constructions 
can  be  put.  First,  that  she  had  issue;  second,  that  she  left  no  descendants,  or  that 
she  had  no  issue.  Put  whichever  construction  you  will  upon  it,  the  statement  is 
erroneous,  for  she  had  descendants  now  living  in  Brooklyn,  at   least  one  great-grand-

Charity  Keteltas  is  also  erroneous  according  to  the  Bible  record.

cepted Masons,  Crown  Anchor  Tavern,  Liverpool,  dated  3d  March,  1797  ;  certifi-

Company  No.  iS  from  date  of  appointment  to  date  of  this  certificate. 

The  following  is  a  copy  of  the  Family  record  of  Gerret  Keteltas,  copied  from  Bible 
in  the  possession  of  William  Nicoll  Buckley,  Brooklyn,  N.  V. 

"Gerret  Keteltas  was  born  in  N.  Y.  the  first  of  Jan.  1748-9.  Charity  Nicoll 
daughter  of  William  Nicoll  Esq.  of  Islip  was  born  Mch.  27th.  1753  at  Eleven  O'clock 
night  and  was  married  to  Gerret  Keteltas  the  fifth  of  November  1771  by  the  Rev. 
John  Greaton. 

"William  Nicoll  Keteltas  was  born  in  N.  Y.  the  20th  Feb.  1773  at  half  past  nine

by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Archibald  Ladlie,  his  sponsors  were  Elizabeth  Keteltas  and  Peter 
Keteltas. 

"  Oct.  10th,  1776  Departed  this  life  my  son  Peter  Keteltas. 

"  Peter  Keteltas  was  born  at  Islip  the  19th  Dec.  177S  at  half  past  12  O'clock  at

"Joanna  Keteltas  was  born  the  10th  day  of  April  at  4  O'clock  in  the  morning  in 
N.  Y.  1782  and  was  baptised  by  the  Rev.  Mr.  Leming  in  Stratford  the  1st.  May  1785. 

"  Samuel  Keteltas  was  born  Nov.  6th,  17S6  on  Monday  evening  at  half  past  eight 
O'clock  and  was  baptised  the  9th  day  of  August  A.D.  1S09.

"Gerret  Keteltas  departed  this  life  on  Saturday  morning  9th  June  1810  at  6 
O'clock  aged  61  years  and  5  months. 

"  Charity  Keteltas  departed  this  life  on  Friday  morning  the  20th,  Oct.  1S20  6 
O'clock  aged  65  years  and  6  months." 

As  I  was  interested  in  tracing  the  descendants  of  but  one  of  the  daughters  of  Wil- 
liam Nicoll  Keteltas,  I  have  not  attempted  to  trace  any  other  branch,  but  here  give 
copy  of  his  marriage  certificate,  which  is  as  follows: 

"William  Nicoll  Keteltas  of  the  Parish  of  Liverpool,  Gentleman,  and  Maria  Wil- 
liams of  the  same  place,  Spinster  were  married  in  the  Parish  Church  of  St.  Peter,  in 
Liverpool  aforesaid  on  the  first  day  of  October  in  the  Year  of  Our  Lord  1795. 

"  By  me.     Sam.  Renshaw  Rector." 

From  the  year  1S00  to  1807  I  find  his  name  in  the  New  York  directory,  a  part  of 
this  time  as  a  china,  glass,  and  crockery  merchant  at  No.  173  Water  Street. 

I  did  not  succeed  in  finding  the  Bible  of  William  X.  Keteltas,  but  learned  he 
certainly  had  the  following  named  children  : 

Mary  Keteltas,  who  married  in  New  York  Maurice  Lemon. 

Edward  Keteltas. 

Georgiana  Keteltas,  born  in  New  York,  1802,  died  at  Grand  Rapids,  Michigan, 
28th  of  February,  1S76;  married,  first,  Harry  Buckley  ;  married,  secondly,  Gilbert  S. 
Herbert. 

In  1811  I  find  in  the  New  York  directory  that  Charity  Keteltas,  widow,  was  re-

OBITUARIES. 

King. — William  Lewis  King,  one  of  ihe  best  known  citizens  of  Morristown,  N. 
J.,  died  at  his  home  on  Morris  Street,  March  iS,  1897,  at  the  advanced  age  of  ninety- 
one. 

Mr.King  was  of  early  Colonial  ancestry  (ante, Vol.  XIV.,  p.  50),  being  a  descendant 
in  the  seventh  generation  of  William1  and  Dorothy  (Hayne)  Kinge  of  Salem,  Mass., 
through  Samuel1  and  Frances  (Ludlam)  King  of  Souihold,  L.  I.,  Jo/in*  and  Kather- 
ine  (Osborne)  King  of  Souihold,  Constant*  and  Phebe  (Horton)  King  of  Black  River, 
N.  J.,  Frederick'  and  Catherine  (Ayers)  King  of  Morristown  and  Henry*  and  Char- 
lotte (Morrell)  King  of  Morristown. 

William  Lewis  King  was  born  in  Morristown,  January  30,  1806,  and  was  the 
youngest  of  five  brothers,  all  of  whom  he  survived.  He  received  his  education  at  the 
Morris  Academy,  and  in  1824  went  to  Richmond,  Va.,  where  he  associated  in 
business  with  his  brother,  Henry  King. 

Mr.  King  married,  June  I,  1840,  Mary  Dabney,  daughter  of  Edward  and  Mary 
(Dabney)  Hallem  of  Richmond,  and  had  two  daughters,  both  of  whom  died  without 
issue. 

In  1S43  Mr.  King  became  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Naylor  and  Co.,  the 
American  branch  of  the  famous  steel  manufacturers  of  Sheffield,  England,  and 
remained  a  partner  until  1S62,  when  he  retired  from  active  business. 

On  his  return  from  Europe  in  1867,  after  an  absence  of  five  years,  Mr.  King 
purchased  the  Lewis  property  in  Morristown,  where  he  resided  until  his  death.  He 
was  for  many  years  connected  with  the.  National  Iron  Bank  and  Morris  Counly 
Savings  Bank,  and  was  a  Trustee  of  the  South  Street  Presbyterian  Church  ;  he  was 
also  Vice-President  of  the  Washington  Association,  a  Trustee  of  the  Old  Ladies' 
Home,  which  he  founded,  and  of  the  Charities  Aid  Association  of  New  York  City. 

The  Morristown  Library  and  Lyceum  is  an  enduring  monument  of  Mr.  King's  zeal 
and  benevolence,  and  he  served  as  its  President  from  the  beginning  until  his  death. 

Funeral  services  were  held  in  the  Presbyterian  church,  and  Rev.  Albert  Erdman, 
D.D.,  in  a  fitting  tribute  to  Mr.  King's  memory,  said  :  "  Amongthe  elements  of  his 
character  we  note  first  of  all,  and  dominating  all,  his  single-hearted  Christian  recti- 
tude. Religion  with  him  was  not  a  mere  profession  or  merely  the  adornment  of  an 
otherwise  upright  life;  it  entered  into  every  fibre  of  his  soul,  it  gave  shape  and  color 
to  every  act  of  his  life,  he  was  always  and  only  a  thorough  Christian  gentleman." 

Mr.  King  was  buried  in  the  family  plot  in  [the  old  burial  ground  connected  with 
the  First  Presbyterian  Church,  Morristown.  R.    K. 

John  Van  Schaick  Lansing  rruyn,  Jr.,  born  in  Florence,  June  6,  1S96,  died  at 
Albany,  N.  Y.,  May  17,  1S97.  He  was  the  son  of  John  V.  L.  Pruyn  1223  Truyn

Tune  11,  1S95,  at  Grace  Church  Chantry,  New  York,  and  grandson  of  the  late  John 
V.  L.  Pruyn  and  Harriet  C.  Turner. 

The  members  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society  sympathize 
sincerely  with  the  parents  in  this  bereavement.  Mr.  John  V.  L.  Pruyn  is  a  life 
member  of  the  Society  and  is  esteemed  for  his  many  noble  qualities.

In  a  most  egoistic  introduction  to  this  little  work,  the  reader  is  informed  that 
the  data  contained  in  the  succeeding  pages  were  obtained  from  reliable  sources, 
mostly  manuscripts  ;  also  that  the  author  has  neither  the  time  nor  the  means  to  pub- 
lish all  the  information  he  has  gathered  on  the  subject  since  June  2,  1S59. 

The  American  progenitor  of  the  family,  it  seems,  was  "  Robert  Adams,  a  tailor, 
born  in  Devonshire.  Eng.,  in  1601,"  and  had  nine  children.  Then  follows  a  gene-

biographical  sketches  of  several  members  of  the  family  and  with  genealogical  refer- 
ence tables,  constitutes  a  little  pamphlet  which  bears  on  every  page  the  evidence  of 
patient  labor.  It  is  greatly  to  be  hoped  the  descendants  of  this  family  will  assist  in 
this  praiseworthy  labor,  and  give  to  us  the  benefit  of  a  more  complete  publication  of 
the  author's  manuscript.  H.  C,  JR.

Here  is  a  pretty  specimen  of  the  bookmaker's  art  that  challenges  the  reader's 
attention  to  its  neat  and  dainty  cover  ere  he  proceeds  to  peruse  the  contents.  There 
he  is  not  to  be  disappointed,  for  the  work  easily  bears  out  the  author's  statement  that 
it  represents  a  great  deal  of  labor  and  study  which,  when  directed  toward  the  shores 
of  England,  have  been  fruitless. 

The  American  ancestry  of  the  family  begins  with  William  Teffe,  of  Boston,  whose 
will  is  appended.  Then  proceeds  the  genealogy  in  the  usual  fashion  of  numbering, 
with  each  individual  family  of  father,  mother,  and  children  recorded  between  red 
lines,  with  marginal  figures  for  ready  reference. 

In  these  days  of  genealogical  art  and  science  a  family  history  without  an  index  is 
worse  than  useless.  The  reader  is  just  about  to  consign  this  work  to  that  class  of 
pretty  but  useless  books,  after  a  search  for  an  index,  when,  in  a  pocket  on  the  inside 
of  the  back  cover,  he  finds  a  most  complete  index  detached  from  the  book  and  most 
convenient  in  form. 

This  work  is  certainly  well  gotten  up,  and  shows  care  and  thought  bestowed  on 
both  the  book  itself  and  on  the  subject  matter.  H.   c,   jr.

most  interesting  book,  interesting  alike  to  the  general  reader  as  to  those  whose 
ancestors  dwell  on  the  banks  of  the  Bohemia  River.  It  is  history,  it  is  tradition,  it 
is  genealogy  and  biography,  all  told  in  a  charming  story  of  a  doughty  Bohemian 
surveyor  and  his  descendants.  H.  C,  JR.

This  is  a  brief  sketch  of  an  important  episode  in  the  colonial  history  of  this 
country.  The  subject  presents  many  features  of  interest  not  found  in  the  accounts  of 
the  better  known  Holland  and  French  colonizers.  It  will  come  as  a  surprise  to  all 
who  have  not  given  this  subject  special  attention,  to  be  informed  that  in  the  first  half 
of  the  eighteenth  century  there  came  to  these  shores  from  the  one  small  Rhine 
province  of  Germany,  known  as  the  Lower  Palatinate,  more  than  30,000  immigrants. 
Driven  from  their  own  fair  and  fertile  country  by  the  successive  invasions  of  the 
French  and  Spanish  armies,  an  advance  emigration  of  some  15,000  took  refuge  in 
England  before  the  end  of  1709,  and  during  a  period  of  about  two  years  were  cared 
for  by  the  English  government  at  an  enormous  expense.  During  this  period  a  large 
number  were  distributed  through  England,  and  small  detachments  were  sent  to 
Virginia  and  the  Carolinas,  but  it  was  not  until  1710  that  "  the  largest  single  emi- 
gration to  this  country  in  the  colonial  period  "  left  England.  This  consisted  of 
about  3,000  Palatines,  who  embarked  in  ten  vessels,  Col.  Robert  Hunter,  who  had 
been  appointed  Governor  of  New  York,  sailing  at  the  same  time.  It  is  estimated 
that,  owing  to  the  long  voyage  and  much  sickness,  not  more  than  2,400  survived, 
and  by  the  middle  of  July,  1710,  were  encamped  on  Governor's  Island.  The  struggle 
of  the  Palatines  to  obtain  land  for  a  settlement  makes  a  recital  full  of  pathos  and 
woe,  and  covers  a  period  of  ten  years,  during  which  time  they  were  first  along  the 
Hudson,  at  Livingston  Manor  and  near  Saugerties,  and  later  in  Schoharie,  where, 
though  they  would  have  remained,  their  oppression  by  the  patentees  again  broke  up 
their  settlement,  and  fully  two-thirds  of  their  number  were  compelled  to  move  fur-

ther  into  the  wilderness.  One  part  removed  to  the  Mohawk,  the  other  to  Pennsyl- 
vania, following  the  Indian  trail  over  the  mountains,  about  1722,  from  Schoharie 
through  the  Wyoming  Valley,  and  settled  not  far  from  ihe  present  city  of 'Harrisburg. 
Here  at  last  these  poor  Palatines  found  peace,  and  to  this  settlement  during  the  next 
twenty  years  thousands  of  their  kinsmen  came.  The  history  of  their  life  while  in 
New  York  State  shows  that  they  were  industrious,  sturdy  pioneers,  who  rendered  good 
service  in  the  defence  of  the  province.  General  Herkimer,  whose  record  in  the  Rev- 
olution is  well  known,  was  a  son  of  a  Palatine  emigrant.  Another  Palatine  to  whom 
the  country  owes  a  debt  of  gratitude  was  John  Peter  Zenger,  who  was  apprenticed 
to  New  York's  first  printer,  William  Bradford,  and  who  aflerwaids  himself  became 
a  well-known  printer  and  fought  to  success  a  battle  for  the  freedom  of  the  press. 
We  are  pleased  to  learn  from  the  pamphlet  here  reviewed  that  the  auihor  hopes 
soon  to  publish  a  book  on  the  same  subject,  and  we  bespeak  for  it  a  hearty  welcome 
from  those  who  appreciate  scholarly  contributions  to  the  history  of  the  colonial 
period.  R.   \v.   p.

Although  the  present  volume  contains  no  very  early  records,  it  is  a  welcome 
addition  to  this  important  class  of  genealogical  literature.  It  is  clearly  printed,  and 
deserves  special  praise  for  its  very  full  indexes.  It  was  not  until  1762  that  the  pres- 
ent city  of  Saco  was  set  off  from  Biddeford  and  became  an  independent  town. 
The  records  consist  of  what  appears  to  be  a  complete  list  of  marriages  and  intentions, 
births  and  deaths,  during  the  period  from  1792  to  1S40.  The  following  are  some  of 
the  names  that  appear  in  the  records  with  the  greatest  frequency  ;

The  Richmond  Family,  T594-1S96,  and  Pre-American  Ancestors,  1 040-1594.

Society.  With  facsimiles  of  Signatures.  Commissions,  and  other  Documents.  Bos-

Tremont,  Boston,  Mass. 

This  is  one  of  the  largest  and  one  of  the  finest  genealogies  which  has  lately 
appeared.  It  is  a  work  of  art  throughout.  Mr.  Joshua  Bailey  Richmond,  the  com- 
piler, has  been  at  work  for  some  time,  and  the  collections  made  in  the  same  line 
were  purchased  by  him  from  Rev.  J.  B.  R.  Walker.  It  comprises  the  names  of 
8,560  male  and  female  Richmonds,  and  over  1,100  descendants  ofother  names.  These 
represent  a  small  number  when  compared  with  the  vast  communities  which  will  be 
helped  and  gratified  by  the  work,  which  has  been  laborious,  is  a  satisfaclion,  and  will 
ever  be  an  honor  to  the  author.  The  illustrations  and  facsimiles  (eighteen  insertions) 
are  worthy  of  the  book  in  which  they  appear  ;  the  author  has  recognized  the  fact  that 
next  to  owning  the  original  document  is  the  possession  of  a  reproduction,  and  this 
not  only  distributes  the  satisfaction,  but  makes  the  destruction  of  the  evidence  impos- 
sible. A  facsimile  cannot  be  changed  at  the  will  of  the  interested,  or  injured  by  the 
mistake  of  the  printer  or  copyist  ;  it  stands  as  the  image  in  the  mirror,  with  all  its 
beauties  and  all  its  faults  exact.  There  is  a  good  index,  70  pages,  in  three  col- 
umns. The  author,  whose  address  is  114  State  Street,  Room  3,  Boston,  should  be 
encouraged  by  his  relations  who  owe  him  so  much.  The  price  is  $7.50.  certainly 
not  more  than  two-thirds  the  cost.  We  hope  the  book  will  have  the  large  sale  it 
deserves.

Massachusetts.     Published  by  C.  A.  N.  Spencer.      1897.     Cloth,  l2mo,  pp.  213. 

This  interesting  little  book  is  the  first  attempt  to  make  a  history  of  a  town  which 
is  part  of  the  metropolis  of  the  Commonwealth.  The  book  treats  of  Colonial  and 
Revolutionary  times.  Brief  mention  is  made  of  the  early  families,  the  town's  part  in 
the  civil  war,  the  schools,  churches,  and  libraries.  There  are  lists  of  Grantees,  1635- 
1648  ;  Citizens  in  1679  ;  Founders  of  the  Church,  1 71 7  ;  Soldiers  in  the  Civil  War, 
Postmasters  and  Library  Trustees.  There  is  an  index,  13  pages,  a  map,  and  28  illus- 
trations, mostly  views  and  buildings,  with  some  portraits.

The  time  has  arrived  when  this  subject  can  be  studied  dispassionately,  and  as  a 
pioneer  and  representative  man,  Birney  is  entitled  to  be  remembered.  Candidates 
and  those  who  do  not  survive  until  their  object  is  attained  are  in  danger  of  being  lost

Ludlam  Genealogy  :  A  Genealogy  of  the  Descendants  of  William

American  Bank  Note  Company,  New  York,  56,392.     Cloth,  9J  x  12,  pp.  52. 

This  superb  volume  is  elegantly  printed  on  heavy  paper  ;  begins  with  the  three 
emigrant  brothers  who  came  from  Matlock,  Derbyshire,  England,  to  Boston,  1640, 
and  settled  at  Southampton,  L.  I.  The  sketch  of  the  family  is  confined  to  two  pages; 
three  pages  are  given  to  the  will  of  William  Ludlam,  Sr.,  the  first  will  recorded  in 
New  York,  and  dated  April  27,  1665,  and  the  succeeding  pages  are  strictly  genealog- 
ical, with  almost  no  biography  or  history  except  the  dates  of  birth,  marriage,  and 
death,  with  the  name  of  husband  or  wife,  sometimes  the  occupation,  and  generally 
the  place  of  burial. 

The  arrangement  is  without  numbers,  either  individual  or  generation,  except 
that  the  generation  is  printed  out  above  each  individual,  and  again  it  appears  with  the 
addition  "children  "  over  the  children  in  each  case.  This  necessitates  the  repetition 
every  time  of  the  names  of  the  parents,  by  which  the  line  can  be  traced,  but  not  as 
readily  as  in  the  plan  used  in  The  Record.  There  is  a  double-column  index  of  seven 
pages,  which  completes  a  book  that  will  be  much  prized  by  a  great  many.

Every  biography  should  give  at  least  three  generations  ;  to  wit,  the  parents  and 
children  of  the  subject.  In  this  case  the  parents  were  unknown,  so  the  author  has 
added  two  generations  of  descendants  through  three  of  his  sons.

Printer  and  Bookbinder.      1S96.     Cloth,  5^  x  g,  pp.  132. 

In  this  volume  we  have,  with  the  account  of  the  celebration,  the  history  of  the 
church  ;  the  latter,  the  main  attraction  of  the  book  to  those  whose  interest  arises  from 
the  residence  and  associations  of  ancestors,  fills  some  eighty  pages,  and  is  a  valuable 
contribution.  It  must  be  remembered  it  is  a  history  of  the  church  and  not  the  town, 
but  much  that  concerns  the  one  also  relates  to  the  other  ;  in  fact,  the  two  were  often 
one  and  the  same  in  the  Puritan  settlements  of  Xew  England. 

Saybrook  was  a  separate  colony  for  about  eight  years,  and  was  merged  in  Con- 
necticut, as  Xew  Haven  was  afterwards,  perhaps  a  result  of  the  desire  and  necessity 
for  a  more  perfect  union,  hastened  in  this  case  by  the  failure  of  the  Warwick 
patentees,  except  Fenwick,  to  join  them,  and  he  remained  but  a  short  time;  the  de- 
parture of  his  predecessor  (as  commander  of  the  fort),  Lion  Gardiner  ;  and  the  exodus 
of  Mason  and  his  associates  to  found  the  city  of  Norwich. 

Saybrook  has  had  other  disappointments.  It  was  the  nominal  seat  of  the  Colle- 
giate school  which  became  the  College  at  New  Haven,  Yale  University.  The  seced- 
ing party  has  grown  into  the  city  of  Norwich.  That  part  east  of  the  river  is  now  in 
New  London  County,  and  while  the  population  has  increased  somewhat,  some  of  the 
villages  within  it  are  better  known  and  more  important  to-day  than  that  which  bears 
the  old  name  ;  while  in  Ohio,  Saybrook,  New  Lyme,  and  the  settlements  of  New 
Connecticut  are  increasing  with  a  steady  growth. 

1375  to  1S97.  The  Direct  Ancestry  and  Posterity  of  Judge  Charles 
Townsend,  a  Pioneer  of  Buffalo,  N.  Y.  With  Biographies  of  the  Individ- 
uals of  the  Nineteen  Successue  Generations  thus  Included,  and  other 
Matters  of  Interest  to  the  Townsend  Family.  By  Rev.  Charles  Townsend, 
Orange,  N.  J.     1S97.      Paper,  7x9,  pp.  62. 

There  is  an  excellent  preface  in  which  he  recognizes  the  work  of  Charles  H. 
Townsend,  of  New  Haven,  and  Mary  E.  Perkins,  of  Norwich.  He  does  not  claim 
to  include  the  entire  family  but  only  the  direct  line  from  Roger  de  Townshende, 
1375,  to  the  descendants  of  Judge  Townsend,  of  Buffalo.  There  is  one  unfortunate 
omission  ;  no  book  of  this  class,  large  or  small,  should  be  issued  without  an  index,  for 
it  ends  its  usefulness  to  everyone  whose  engagements  will  not  permit  him  to  read  the 
book  through  ;  moreover,  books  of  this  kind  are  at  most  read  through  but  once,  and 
should  be  fitted  for  hurried  consultation  by  the  mass  of  investigators  who  only  use 
the  index  in  most  cases.  The  paper  and  press  work  are  excellent,  with  broad  mar- 
gins untrimmed.  Thirty-six  pages  treat  of  the  ancestry  of  Charles  Townsend  (17S6- 
1847),  grandfather  of  the  author  ;  the  remainder  of  the  pamphlet  is  given  to  the 
descendants,  sixty-nine  in  number,  through  six  children,  two  sons  and  four  daugh- 
ters, the  latter  bearing  the  names  Stone,  Wilson,  Rich,  and  Rosseel,  all  included  in 
three  generations.

This  volume  comprises  the  first  four  parts  of  Suffolk  Manorial  Families,  by  Jos. 
Jas.  Muskett,  a  valuable  periodical  privately  printed  in  Exeter,  England.  Mr. 
Robert  C.  Winthrop,  Jr.,  who  aided  Mr.  Muskett  in  the  original  publication  by 
furnishing  material  from  the  Winthrop  Tapers,  has  bound  and  provided  fifty  sets, 
with  separate  title-page  and  contents,  for  deposit  in  suitable  libraries.  The  copy 
donated  to  the  New  Vork  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society  is  No.  3S.  The 
only  suggestion  we  shall  venture  to  make  is,  it  is  a  pity  so  fine  a  book  has  no  index.

Book   Xofices .  t  jq 


This  valuable  contribution  to  the  list  of  town  histories  will  introduce  a  name  not 
on  the  map  ;  and  while  the  gazetteer  speak;  of  towns  in  Maine  and  Ohio,  and  a  village 
in  New  Jersey,  of  that  name,  this  is  described  as  a  station  on  the  N.  L.,  \V.  and  P.  R . 
R.,  but  nevertheless  it  has  a  history.  The  history  as  we  find  it  in  this  volume  begins 
with  the  Pequots  and  Mohegans.  There  are  accounts  of  the  Pequot  war,  the  friendship 
of  Uncas  with  the  whites,  the  death  of  Miantinomoh,  the  alienation  of  Indian  lands 
to  settlers  and  the  subsequent  litigations.  Frequent  mention  is  made  of  one  of 
whom  Bishop  Huntington  speaks,  in  "  Two  Ways  of  Treating  the  Indian  Problem," 
thus  :  "  A  letter  came  to  me  from  the  distinguished  English  preacher  Jas.  Martineau, 
inquiring  the  authorship  of  the  anonymous  hymn  in  our  old  Collection,  beginning  : 
'  Xow  the  shades  of  night  are  gone.'  It  was  only  after  a  long  search  that  I  discovered 
the  writer  to  be  Samson  Occum,  an  Indian  minister,  who  died  late  in  the  last  century 
in  Central  New  York.  For  one  I  find  that  Book,  which  we  all  prize  as  the  ripest 
expression  of  an  adoring  Christendom,  more  precious  still  for  knowing  that  into  its 
manifold  harmony  there  comes  this  voice  from  another  one  of  the  nations  and 
kindreds  and  tongues  that  shall  stand  before  the  throne."  Dr.  Eliot  informs  the 
writer  that  this  beautiful  hymn  has  disappeared  from  the  Hymnal  of  the  Church  notwith- 
standing this  indorsement.  Mr.  Occum  preached  in  England  and  Scotland,  devoting 
collections  which  Lord  Dartmouth  assisted  him  to  make,  amounling  to  $50,000,  to 
the  Indian  School  at  Lebanon,  Conn.,  which  was  removed  and  became  Dartmouth 
College. 

Pages  100  to  602  give  genealogical  accounts  of  families,  resident  in  this 
town,  named  :  Parish,  Darrow,  Bolles,  Congdon,  Fargo,  Comstock,  Baker,  Rogers, 
Browning,  Vibber,  Green,  Chester,  Manwaring,  Turner,  Vallet,  Scholfield,  Atwell, 
Austin,  Smith,  Leffingwell,  Latimer,  Holmes,  Dolbeare,  Rudd,  Fellowes,  Champlin, 
Wickwire,  Fox,  Fitch,  Bradford,  Otis,  Stebbins,  Hill,  Allen,  Palmer,  Parker, 
Vincent,  Lyon,  Dart,  Williams,  Maples.  Newbury,  Chapel,  Haughton,  Lester, 
Bailey,  Adgate,  Wrhaley,  Church,  Allyn,  Avery,  Bliss,  Copp,  Crocker,  Chapman, 
Cardwell,  Denison,  Gardrter,  Hillhouse,  Jewitt,  Loomis,  Raymond,  Richards, 
Swaddle,  Thompson,  Tuttle,  Alden.  These,  though  brief,  make  valuable  additions  to 
Connecticut  family  genealogies.  We  wish  they  had  been  arranged  alphabetically  and 
that  the  author  had  added  a  full  index  ;  this  consists  of  seven  pages  (double  column) 
of  family  names  appearing  in  the  genealogies  only.  There  are  lists  of  the  men  of 
Montville  who  served  in  the  Revolution,  War  of  i3l2,  and  Civil  War  ;  there  are  also 
lists  of  officials  and  physicians.  In  the  appendix  are  notes  of  Chapman,  Walden, 
Gustin,  Willoughby,  Prince,  Brown,  Nelson,  Whiting,  and  Noyes.  This  book  proves 
that  much  interesting  history  may  be  collected,  even  of  places  unknown  except  within 
a  small  radius  ;  and  we  hope  many  will  be  induced  to  gather  for  preservation  the 
history  and  genealogies  of  their  towns.     What  better  monument  can  one  create?

OF  Gorham,  Maine.  Compiled  by  Marquis  F.  King,  President  of  the  Maine

The  cut  of  the  Town  Monument  is  shown,  with  copy  of  the  inscriptions  commemo- 
rating the  fact  that  this  town  was  named  after  Capt.  John  Gorham,  who  died  "from 
exposure  in  the  expedition  against  the  Narragansett  Indians."  The  "  Wast  Book," 
a  copy  of  which  appears  for  the  first  time  in  this  issue,  shows  that  he  died  from 
wounds.  Gorham,  as  the  monument  tells  us.  is  one  of  seven  townships  granted  by 
General  Court  in  1732  to  Capt.  John  Gorham  and  119  others.  There  is  an  intro- 
duction by  the  learned  compiler,  and  faithful  copies  of  the  town  records,  which  the 
community,  resident  and  distant,  will  find  valuable.  The  compilation  reflects  honor 
on  the  town  as  well  as  the  author.

The  author  need  have  no  hesitation  in  oftering  this  book  to  the  public.  It  is  a 
work  to  be  proud  of.  Its  clear  type  and  fine  illustrations  create  a  favorable  impres- 
sion before  its  pages  are  read.  The  contents  are  history,  geography,  biography,  com- 
bined in  a  very  pleasing  tout  ensemble  0:ie  dare  not  particularize  where  there  is  so 
much ;  the  names  of  Sewall  and  Cushing  a:  the  bar.  Parton  and  Cooke  among 
writers,  Dummer  and  Felton  in  education.  Garrison  Whitefield  and  the  host  of 
heroes  identified  with  the  town,  and  recorded  here,  insures  something  to  interest 
everyone.

Brooklyn,  X.  V.:  Published  for  the  Author,  1897.      c)\  x  5 J,  cloth. 

This  work,  which  Mr.  Doty  has  now  finished  after  a  quarter  of  a  century  of  labor, 
brings  together  thousands  of  descendants  of  the  Pilgrims  in  a  very  satisfaciory  ar- 
rangement. The  time  taken  from  a  busy  life  to  render  such  a  service  to  one's  kindred 
is  more  than  many  suppose  ;  in  fact,  few  realize  the  duty  of  aiding  the  parly  who 
undertakes  such  a  work  by  every  means  in  their  power.  The  experience  of  the  author, 
who  tells  us  he  has  written  over  five  thousand  letters,  and  received  about  two  thou- 
sand two  hundred  replies,  is  the  same  in  every  case.  Why  is  fifty  per  cent,  of  the 
time,  money,  and  effort  represented  by  this  correspondence  thrown  away  without 
response,  when  no  genealogist  ever  expects  to  be  repaid  for  his  work,  and  only  a  few 
ever  receive  back  the  amount  of  the  publisher's  bill?  The  book  will  be  ready  July 
1st.  The  price  is  $3.  As  the  edition  is  limited,  we  advise  an  early  application  for 
copies.  Address,  Ethan  Allen  Doty,  70  Duane  Street,  New  York.  The  arrange- 
ment is  substantially  The  Record  plan.  The  index  is  full.  No  one  should  delay  to 
secure  it  who  is  included,  for  his  children  and  grandchildren  will  all  want  copies  one 
of  these  days.     Then  the  increased  demand  will  add  to  the  value.

them.      Amenia,  N.  Y. :  Walsh  &°  Griffen,  Printers.     1S97.     Cloth,  7x9^,  pp.  142. 

Mr.  Lawrence  Van  Alstyne,  of  Sharon,  Conn.,  the  author,  is  an  industrious  and 
intelligent  genealogist.  He  says:  "These  notes  being  the  result  of  much  letter 
writing  ana  some  personal  inquiry  along  the  line  of  my  direct  ancestor,  Lambert 
Janse  Van  Alstyne,  are  now  brought  together  for  the  purpose  of  showing  how  little  I 
have  learned,  and  how  much  I  would  be  glad  to  learn  concerning  them."  We 
believe  this  is  the  best  way  to  get  what  others  know,  and  hope  he  will  be  amply 
rewarded.  There  is  an  index  of  twenty  pages,  and  altogether  it  is  a  good  contri- 
bution to  genealogical  literature.     The  price  is  $2.50,  post  paid.

Published  by  the  Weed  Parsons  Printing  Co.,  Albany,  N.  Y.  1S97.  Cloth,  8vo, 
pp.  vi,  196. 

Perhaps  the  best  idea  of  this  book  can  be  got  from  a  paragraph  out  of  the  preface  : 
"  I  have  not  aimed  to  present  the  descendants  of  Wm.  Walworth,  the  emigrant,  as  a 
drilled  corps  of  dry  skeletons  or  spectres,  rising  from  the  ground,  remaining  in  sight 
long  enough  to  beget  each  other,  and  then  sinking  out  of  sight  again  like  grim 
ghosts.  I  have  tried  to  put  some  life  into  them  where  history  or  tradition  would 
give  me  any  honest  flesh  to  put  on  them."  He  speaks  of  his  fondness  for  Groton, 
and  concludes  :  "  If  this  book  of  mine  carries  with  it  any  ambitious  hope,  it  is  that 
its  pages  may  help  to  make  the  good  old  town  better  known  and  dearer  to  all  who 
carry  this  ancestral  current  in  their  veins."  The  reverend  author  is  the  eldest  son  of 
Chancellor  Reuben  Hyde  Walworth,  who  was  a  pioneer  among  American  genealo- 
gists, and  so  comes  naturally  by  the  work,  nothwithsianding  his  antipathy  to  the  dry 
statistics  of  the  study.  He  has  made  a  readable,  instructive  book  ;  the  dates  are  not 
omitted,  neither  is  it  padded  with  tradition,  but  plenty  of  biography  and  history. 
There  is  an  index  of  descendants,  and  another  of  their  husbands  and  wives,  making 
twenty-seven  pages.  It  is  not  on  The  Record  plan,  but  the  type  work  is  attractive  ; 
there  are  also  several  portraits  and  views,  which  materially  helps  any  publication. 
We  do  not  know  if  it  is  offered  for  sale,  but  it  will  be  sought  for. 

Great  Commanders.  General  Grant.  By  James  Grant  Wilson.  New  York: 
D.  Appleton  &  Co.,  1S97.     With  Portrait  and  Many  Illustrations.     Svo,  pp.  390. 

Few  could  have  been  better  equipped  for  writing  this  book  than  its  author. 
Much  experience  in  biographical  work,  an  acquaintance  long  continued  and  some- 
what intimate  with  the  famous  general  and  his  family,  and  considerable  familiarity 
with  military  affairs  may  be  mentioned  as  qualifications  possessed  by  General  Wilson 
for  this  work. 

The  earlier  and  later  events  of  General  Grant's  life  are  not  minutely  related,  but 
as  it  were  in  a  frame  to  show  with  greater  distinctness  the  qualities  and  merits  of  the 
great  commander — their  evolution  and  culmination.  The  history  of  the  war  is  suc- 
cinctly given.  Numerous  maps  and  facsimiles  add  greatly  to  the  interest  of  the 
narrative.      It  is  not  easy  to  refrain  from  the  wish  that  the  book  were  larger.

SOCIETY   NOTICE. 

.  The  New  York  Genealogical  Society  has  had  a  very  successful 
season.  Papers  have  been  read  by  Rev.  M.  E.  Dwight  on  Ancestry  of 
Jno.  Drake  ;  Prof.  Daniel  Murray  on  the  Anti-Rent  Episode  in  New 
York  ;  Gen.  Wilson  on  An  Acadian  Governor  ;  Isaac  Laurence,  Esq., 
Diplomacy  and  Diplomatists  ;  Col.  Fred.  D.  Grant,  Grant's  Campaign  of 
'64  and  '65  ;  Win.  Nelson,  Esq.,  Customs  of  the  Dutch  Settlers  of  New 
Jersey;  Capt.  Jas.  Parker,  The  Paiker  and  Kearney  Families  of  New 
Jersey  ;  T.  Astley  Atkins,  Esq.,  Dudley  Atkins  [Tyng],  The  Colonial 
Reporter  ;  and  Gen.  Egbert  L.  Viele,  Incidents  of  a  Genealogical  Tour. 

The  Society  has  received  from  the  Secretary  the  composite  group, 
War  Veterans  Seventh  Regiment,  one  hundred  and  sixty-one  portraits 
taken  between  1861  and  '65,  of  whom  forty-two  were  killed  in  the  war 
or  have  died  since  ;  20  x  30,  with  key,  both  framed  ;  also  from  Gen. 
Viele.  life-size  bust  of  Gen.  Grant. 

The  office  of  Necrologist  has  been  created,  and  Dr.  Henry  R. 
Stiles  elected  thereto.  The  Board  of  Trustees  has  ordered  a  memorial 
tablet  in  honor  of  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Underhill  Coles,  by  whose  generous 
bequest  the  Society  secured  its  building.  A  bronze  reproduction  of  the 
seal  was  also  ordered  for  the  outside  of  the  building. 

The  names  of  the  contributors  to  the  Fireproof  Library  building  are 
repeated  here,  because  there  have  been  additions  since  the  publication, 
and  the  donations  now  amount  to  $4.°°°,  divided  as  follows  :  Two  of 
$1,000,  from  Jas.  J.  Goodwin  and  Cornelius  Vanderbilt  ;  two  of  $500, 
from  Samuel  Burhans  and  Mrs.  Henry  Herman  ;  one  of  $200,  from  Win. 
Watts  Sherman  ;  and  eight  of  $100,  from  G.  S.  Coddington,  H.  T. 
Drowne,  E.  A.  Hurry,  Mrs.  W.  H.  Lee,  Mrs.  Russell  Sage,  Frederick 
D.  Thompson,  Mrs.  R.  W.  Townsend,  and  Gen.  J.  G.  Wilson. 

The  Magazine  Daughters  of  the  Revolution  has  been  merged  in  The 
Record,  and  the  material  heretofore  collected  for  it  will  be  used  in  this 
publication  as  opportunity  offers.  The  Editor  of  that  Magazine  feels 
compelled  to  relinquish  her  work,  in  consequence  of  her  daughter's 
absence,  and,  being  a  member  of  the  New  York  Genealogical  and  Bio- 
graphical Society,  will  transfer  her  support  and  collections  to  The 
Record.  ''  Silent  Witnesses  "  will  be  continued  from  the  Magazine  in 
The  Record.  The  Magazine  Daughters  of  the  Revolution  first  appeared 
as  The  Gotham  Monthly  ;  Vols.  II.  and  III.  were  published  under  the 
name  Adams  Magazine  of  General  Literature.  Under  the  recent  name 
three  volumes  have  been  issued.  It  printed  in  attractive  form  family 
genealogies,  colonial  records,  Revolutionary  history,  deeds,  wills, 
letters,  etc.,  until  the  present  year.  It  was  also  the  organ  of  the 
Daughters  and  Dames  of  the  Revolution  and  Order  of  Descendants  of 
Colonial  Governors. 

We  shall  hope  to  welcome  as  subscribers  all  who  enjoyed  its  pages 
and  gave  it  their  patronage  ;  and  while  we  are  not  connected  with  any 
of 'the  Patriotic  Hereditary  Societies,  our  Society  is  the  patron  of  all  of 
them,  and  ours  is  the  only  American  genealogical  publication  outside 
of  New  England  which  can  boast  a  history  over  a  quarter-century  in 
duration.  This  number  and  the  next  will  be  sent  to  those  whose  names 
are  sent  to  us  by  the  former  Editor  of  that  Magazine.  Thereafter,  the 
subscription  price  will  be  the  same  to  all— $2.00  per  annum.

"FIGHTING  PARSON  ALLEN." 


By  Mrs.  H.  M.  Plunkett. 


The  news  came  that  there  was  fighting  going  on  at  Bennington, 
and  Parson  Allen  came  down  from  the  pulpit  with  his  musket  in  his 
hand,  and  said,  "  Come  on,  boys  !  "  and  took  command.  They  marched 
right  off,  and  arrived  in  time  to  help  win  the  victory.  They  say  the 
minister  killed  one  man,  and  perhaps  more.  Such  with  a  few  additions 
and  alterations  is  a  tradition  that  still  lingers  among  the  Berkshire  hills, 
and  at  its  repetition  there  rises  in  the  imagination  of  the  listener  the  fig- 
ure of  a  powerful,  rugged-featured  man  in  whom  the  old  Berserker 
fighting  instinct  was  so  strong  that  it  needed  but  a  spark  to  be  kindled 
into  a  fierce  flame,  whereas  the  Rev.  Mr.  Allen  was  a  man  of  moderate 
stature,  of  delicate  features  and  refined  manners,  whose  final  resolve  to 
"bare  the  arm  of  flesh  "  against  his  country's  enemies  was  the  natural 
culmination  of  a  long  course  of  patriotic  devotion,  and  just  what  might 
have  been  expected  of  a  loving  husband  and  tender  father,  whose  very 
fireside  was  threatened  by  an  enemy  approaching  in  force  and  now  less 
than  thirty  miles  away,  whose  orders  were  to  "live  on  the  country,"  and 
take  whatever  of  value — provisions,  ammunition,  horses,  cattle,  saddles, 
bridles,  etc. — he  could  lay  hands  on. 

In  all  the  story  there  is  but  one  "true  fact,"  viz.,  that  Mr.  Allen  did 
go,  and  serve  in  the  ranks  with  his  fellow-townsmen  in  answer  to  Stark's 
summons  to  the  local  militia  to  hasten  to  his  aid,  and  fight  for  their 
altars  and  their  fires  ;  for  a  large  force,  well  supplied  with  artillery  and 
ammunition,  was  on  its  way,  with  orders  to  scour  the  country  for  cattle, 
and  horses  to  mount  the  dragoons,  to  make  prisoners  of  all  civil  as  well 
as  military  officers  holding  under  the  Congress,  to  draw  on  the  country 
for  their  immediate  supplies,  taking  hostages  to  insure  the  production  of 
them,  but,  above  all,  to  secure  all  horses,  saddles  and  bridles.  Burgoyne 
had  been  misled  into  believing  there  were  large  supplies  collected  at  Ben- 
nington, and  that  it  was  also  a  rich  depository  of  other  military  necessities. 

As  we  turn  the  search-light  of  historical  investigation  on  to  this  lively 
Revolutionary  myth,  feature  after  feature  melts  away  like  a  statue  done  in 
butter,  but  from  beneath  its  remains  there  emerges  the  heroic  figure  of  a 
man  with  delicate  features,  refined  manners,  and  a  heart  as  tender  as  a 
woman's,  who  considered  it  a  part  of  his  "sacred  calling"  to  lift  his 
voice  and  arm  in  the  defence  of  his  home  and  his  country. 

The  original  story  vanishes  as  follows  :  The  battle  was  not  fought  on 
Sunday,  neither  was  the  news  brought  to  the  church-door,  for  the  mounted 
messengers  were  sent  forth  from  Stark's  headquarters  to  rouse  the  coun- 
tryside on  Thursday  morning,  August  14th,  and  no  doubt  the  ill   news 
13 


1 86  "Fighting  Parson   Allen."  [October, 

reachedj  Pittsfield  in  the  afternoon.  The  usual  rallying-place  in  all 
emergencies  was  the  meeting-house,  and  thither  Parson  Allen  and  his 
flock  hastened.  The  whole  region  was  smarting  under  the  humiliating 
defeat  at  Ticonderoga  six  weeks  before  ;  Mr.  Allen  had  been  there  as  a 
chaplain  at  the  time,  and,  with  his  heart  fairly  on  fire,  he  made  an  address 
of  such  power  that  those  who  heard  it  never  forgot  its  burning  eloquence. 
Many  of  the  able-bodied  citizens  were  already  away,  serving  in  different 
sections  of  the  army,  and  some,  who  had  but  just  completed  terms  of 
service,  were  attending  to  their  neglected  and  belated  farming  ;  but  no 
one  stopped  to  ask  if  he  were  legally  exempt,  or  if  his  crops  would  go  to 
ruin  if  he  left  them.  In  hot  haste  one  detachment,  seizing  such  weapons, 
ammunition,  and  provisions  as  came  to  hand,  and  enrolling  themselves 
under  the  command  of  Lieutenant  Ford — an  officer  of  experience — set 
off,  not  stopping  for  much  military  ceremony  or  a  display  of  tactics  by 
the  way.  Mr.  Allen,  instead  of  shouting,  with  musket  in  hand,  "  Come 
on,  boys  !  "  set  the  sensible  and  worthy  example  of  modestly  taking  his 
place  as  a  private,  under  a  seasoned  military  man  ;  but,  wisely  conserving 
his  vital  force  for  the  actual  combat,  he  set  forth  in  a  sulky  that  was  at 
that  time  an  important  adjunct  to  the  pastoral  work  of  a  minister  whose 
parish  was  six  miles  square.  The  pouring  rain  drenched  the  men  to 
their  skins,  but  did  not  dampen;  their  ardor;  and  though  the  muddy 
roads  were  little  better  than  bridle-paths,  they  arrived  during  the  night  of 
the  15th.     In  Everett's  "  Life  of  Stark  "  the  following  account  is  found  : 

Among  the  re-enforcements  from  Berkshire  county,  came  a  clergyman  [Rev.  M. 
Allen]  with  a  portion  of  his  flock,  resolved  to  make  bare  the  arm  of  flesh  against  the 
enemies  of  his  country.  Before  daylight  on  the  morning  of  the  16th  he  addressed  the 
commander  as  follows  :  "  We  the  people  of  Berkshire  have  been  frequently  called 
upon  to  fight,  but  have  never  been  led  against  the  enemy.  We  have  now  resolved,  if 
you  will  not  let  us  fight,  never  to  turn  out  again."  Gen.  Stark  asked  him  if  he 
wished  to  march  then  when  it  was  dark  and  rainy.  "  No,"  was  the  answer,  "  not 
just  this  minute."  "  Then,"  continued  Stark,  "  if  the  Lord  should  once  more  give  us 
sunshine,  and  I  do  not  give  you  fighting  enough,  I  will  never  ask  you  to  come  again. 

The  morning  of  the  1 6th  dawned  bright  and  clear,  and  revealed  the 
fact  that  the  enemy  were  carefully  posted,  and  every  man  felt  that  shortly 
he  would  be  engaged  in  a  decisive  action.  In  this  solemn  hour,  the 
Berkshire  men  would  not  leave  their  camp  till  their  trusted  pastor  had 
offered  a  prayer.  He  prayed  with  the  fervent  earnestness  for  which  he 
was  distinguished  that  "the  God  of  armies  would  teach  their  hands  to 
war  and  their  fingers  to  fight,"  and  it  was  said  to  have  inspired  the  men 
like  a  harangue  from  a  trusted  military  commander,  and  not  a  few  attrib- 
uted the  glorious  success  of  the  day  to  the  "  effectual  prayer  of  the  right- 
eous man."  Stark  made  the  Berkshire  contingent  a  part  of  his  own 
personal  command,  forming  part  of  a  reserve  which  were  to  come  up 
after  Colonel  Nichols  and  Colonel  Herrick  should  have  successfully 
assailed  the  right  and  left  of  the  enemy's  position.  As  they  were  being 
brought  up  to  execute  their  part  of  the  programme,  they  came  near  to 
the  Tory  outworks  and  Mr.  Allen  could  not  resist  his  habitual  impulse  to 
win  men  from  the  error  of  their  ways  by  methods  less  sanguinary  than  the 
shot-gun,  and  as  he  knew  that  some  of  his  old  neighbors  were  in  the  oppos- 
ing force,  in  spite  of  its  temerity  he  mounted  a  fallen  tree  and  conjured 
them  to  come  out  from  the  enemies  of  their  country  and  stop  the  eflusion 
of  blood.  The  answer  was,  "There's  Parson  Allen  :  let's  pop  him  !  "  and 
a  shower  of  bullets  riddled  the  tree  but  spared  him. 


1897-]  "Fighting  Parson  Allen.'  187 

Immediately  after  the  battle,  Mr.  Allen  wrote  an  account  of  it  for  the 
Connecticut  Courant — Hartford  being  the  nearest  news-centre  to  Pittsfield. 
After  having  given  a  minute  picture  of  the  positions  of  different  corps, 
regiments,  etc.,  he  says  :  "The  general  it  seems  wisely  laid  his  plan  of 
operation,  and  Divine  Providence  blessing  us  with  good  weather,  between 
three  and  four  o'clock  p.m.,  he  attacked  them  in  front  and  flank,  in  three 
or  four  different  places  at  the  same  instant,  with  irresistible  impetuosity. 

"  The  action  was  extremely  hot  for  between  one  and  two  hours.  The 
flanking  divisions  had  carried  their  points  with  great  success,  when  the 
front  pressed  on  to  their  breastworks  with  an  ardor  and  impatience 
beyond  expectation.  The  blaze  of  the  guns  of  the  contending  parties 
reached  each  other.  The  fire  was  so  extremely  hot — and  our  men  easily 
surmounting  their  breastworks,  amid  peals  of  thunder  and  flashes  of 
lightning  from  their  guns,  without  regarding  the  roar  of  their  field-pieces 
—  that  the  enemy  at  once  deserted  their  cover  and  ran  ;  and  in  about 
five  minutes  their  whole  camp  was  in  the  utmost  confusion  and  dis- 
order. All  their  battalions  were  broken  in  pieces  and  fled  most  precipi- 
tately, at  which  instant  our  whole  army  pressed  on  with  redoubled  ardor, 
pursued  them  for  a  mile,  made  considerable  slaughter  among  them  and 
many  prisoners."  .  .  .  Then  follows  an  account  of  various  field- 
pieces  and  further  details  of  the  pursuit,  till,  as  he  further  says,  "  Dark- 
ness came  upon  us  and  prevented  our  swallowing  up  the  whole  of  this 
body. — The  enemy  fled  precipitately  the  succeeding  night  towards  the 
North  River,  and  unless  they  should  be  met  by  a  party  of  our  army, 
may  have  reached  there  without  further  molestation.  Gov.  Skeene  'the 
man  who  had  misled  Burgoyne]  in  surprise  and  consternation  took 
horse  and  fled.  This  action,  which  redounds  so  much  to  the  glory  x>(  the 
great  Lord  of  the  heavens  and  the  God  of  Armies,  affords  the  Americans 
a  lasting  monument  of  the  divine  power  and  goodness,  and  a  most  pow- 
erful argument  of  love  to,  and  trust  in  God." 

The  victory  was  complete.  The  Americans  lost  thirty  killed  and  forty 
wounded,  while  the  loss  of  theenemy  was  more  than  a  thousand  in  killed, 
wounded,  and  prisoners.  Of  the  nearly  seven  hundred  prisoners  three- 
fourths  were  Germans,  only  one  hundred  and  seventy-five  being  "  tories  " 
— a  sharp  comment  on  the  difference  between  hireling  soldiers  and  those 
who,  as  Mr.  Allen  had  said  in  an  address  to  the  Americans  at  Ticonde- 
roga,  "  are  contending  for  your  wives  .  .  .  your  children  .  .  .  your 
flocks  and  herds,  whether  they  shall  be  yours  or  theirs  ; — for  your  houses 
and  lands,  for  your  freedom  for  future  generations,  for  everything  that  is 
great  and  noble,  and,  on  account  of  which  only,  life  is  of  any  worth." 

The  material  fruits  of  the  victory  were  four  brass  cannon,  nine  hun- 
dred dragoon  swords,  one  thousand  stand  of  excellent  arms,  and  four 
ammunition  wagons,  and  many  personal  belongings  secured  by  individ- 
ual soldiers;  but  its  moral  results  were  immense,  for  in  the  midst  of  a 
long  and  black  night  of  defeat  and  discouragement,  it  was  the  breaking 
forth  of  that  first  star  which  tells  that  the  clouds  are  rolling  away,  and  it 
inspirited  and  heartened  the  whole  country,  for  it  kept  many  another 
woman  than  Molly  Stark  from  widowhood.  Mr.  Allen  found  a  German 
surgeon's  horse  bearing  some  panniers  full  of  bottled  wine.  He  at  once 
caused  it  to  be  administered  to  the  weary  and  wounded  soldiers,  keeping 
one  of  the  large  square  Hessian  bottles  as  a  memento  of  his  three  days' 
tour  of  soldiering.     Years  after,  on  being  asked  whether   "  he  actually 


1 38  "Fighting  Parson  Allen."  [October, 

killed  any  man  at  Bennington,"  he  said  that  "he  did  not  know;  but 
that,  observing  a  flash  often  repeated  from  a  certain  bush,  and  that  it  was 
generally  followed  by  the  fall  of  one  of  Stark's  men,  he  fired  that  way  and 
put  the  flash  out."  Undoubtedly  it  was  a  very  radical  step — in  after  years 
wrested  to  his  hurt  by  his  enemies — for  a  clergyman  to  so  break  down 
the  wall  of  holy  sacerdotalism  that  surrounded  his  office  in  popular  esti- 
mation as  to  shoot  a  fellow  man  ;  but  it  was  the  natural  climax  of  a  long 
course  of  ever-deepening  patriotic  conviction,  now  quickened  into  inten- 
sest  life  by  the  impending  menace  to  his  hearth  and  home.  Born  of 
sturdy  Nonconformist  ancestors,  he  sincerely  believed  that  the  interests  of 
true  religion  were  indissolubly  bound  up  in  a  "  church  without  a  bishop  " 
and  a  "state  without  a  king  "  ;  so  that,  while  fighting  for  their  roof-trees, 
his  parishioners  were  also  engaged  in  a  crusade  for  the  perpetuation  of 
pure  religion. 

In  1764  Mr.  Allen,  then  a  little  more  than  twenty-one  years  of  age, 
had  been  called  to  settle  as  minister  over  a  church  of  only  eight  enrolled 
members  but  over  a  parish  that  contained  sixty  families,  all  able-bodied 
members  of  which  were  expected  to  go  to  meeting  every  Sunday,  or  their 
neighbors  would  know  the  reason  why — in  fact,  non-attendance  at  church 
affixed  a  stigma  which  few  had  the  hardihood  to  desire.  He  commenced 
his  ministrations  in  a  building  that  was  a  true  "meeting-house" — an 
unfinished  structure  forty-five  feet  long  by  thirty-five  feet  wide,  which  was 
merely  covered  and  floored,  but  not  plastered,  and  without  seats,  when,  in 
1 76 1,  it  was  first  used  for  a  town  meeting.  It  was  still  so  closely  sur- 
rounded by  the  primeval  forest  that  the  proprietors  of  the  town,  settling 
lots,  passed  a  vote  of  censure  on  a  man  who  had  not  completed  his  con- 
tract, "  to  clear,  close,  and  clean  an  acre  and  a  half  for  a  meeting-house, 
whereby  the  building  was  in  great  peril  from  wind  and  fire."  In  this 
barn-like  shell  the  young  minister  commenced  a  pastorate  that  lasted 
forty -six  years.  He  was  a  native  of  Northampton,  and  had  been  reared 
in  the  religious  atmosphere  generated  by  the  ministrations  of  Stoddard, 
Edwards,  and  Hooker,  under  the  last  of  whom  he  had  studied  theology  ; 
but  his  mind  was  not  attracted  by  hair-splitting  speculations,  being 
eminently  practical.  Historian  I.  E.  A.  Smith  says:  "His  peculiarity — 
which  was  the  joint  result  of  his  temperament  and  of  the  epoch  in  which 
he  lived — was  that  he  held  in  small  respect  any  religious  faith  which  did 
not  manifest  itself  in  outward  acts,  and  especially  in  those  done  for  the 
common  good,  and  that  he  esteemed  resistance  to  every  form  of  oppres- 
sion, and  devotion  to  the  political  principles  best  adapted  to  the  preserva- 
tion of  equal  rights,  to  be  among  the  most  sacred  of  duties. " 

In  1768  the  parish  had  built  a  parsonage  on  the  ample  acres  that  had 
been  granted  the  pastor,  known  as  the  "minister's  lot,"  and  he  married  * 
Miss  Elizabeth  Lee  of  Salisbury,  Conn.,  a  splendid  specimen  of  the  New 
England  lady,  whose  beauty  and  gracious  manners  came  down  undimin- 

*  From  the  Connecticut  Courant,  March  7,  176S  :

field  in  the  Province  of  Massachusetts  Pay,  was  married  to  Miss  Elizabeth  Pee,  the 
amiable  daughter  of  Rev.  M.  Jonathan  Pee  of  this  town,  a  young  lady  well  accom- 
plished to  fill  the  Station  of  Honor  and  LTsefulness  and  render  the  Married  Stale 
agreeable  and  happy.

ished  to  a  large  circle  of  feminine  descendants.  The  bride  rode  to  her 
new  home  over  the  narrow  woodland  roads  on  a  pillion  behind  her  hus- 
band. The  lot  was  two  hundred  rods  deep,  and  comprises  much  of  the 
centre  of  the  town  north  of  the  park.  In  addition,  a  large  tract  west  of 
this  was  set  off  to  support  the  minister.  It  extended  westward  beyond 
Jubilee  Hill,  and  part  of  it  was  sold  to  Dr.  Childs.  They  adopted  a 
curious  pronunciation,  calling  it  the  m\r\\stry  lot. 

To  fully  understand  the  mighty  influence  that  Mr.  Allen  wielded 
during  and  after  the  Revolution,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  there 
was  a  wealthy  and  influential  nest  of  Tories  in  Pittsfield,  we  must 
remember  that  there  were  no  newspapers  save  an  occasional  copy  of 
the  Boston  Gazette  or  the  Connecticut  Con  rant  :  that  in  many  houses 
the  Bible  was  the  only  book  ;  that  all  the  copies  in  the  town  of  the  Pil- 
grim's Progress,  Allieiis  Alarm,  and  Doddridge's  Rise  and  Progress — 
usually  found  in  a  house  besides,  would  not  have  filled  a  bushel  basket, 
and  that  the  two  sermons  preached  in  the  little  barn-like  meeting-house 
formed  the  only  intellectual  treat  of  the  week.  Xo  wonder  that  our 
ancestors  loved  long  sermons,  and  that  after  the  toil  of  clearing  up 
their  farms  it  seemed  indeed  like  sitting  in  heavenly  places,  to  go  and 
see  the  pleasant  picture  presented  by  the  benignant  countenance  of 
their  minister  surmounting  his  gown  and  bands — for  that  distinctive 
garb  had  not  then  been  put  off — and  to  listen  to  his  faithful  and  practi- 
cal exposition  of  Bible  truths  :  the  pastor  of  those  days  was  the  teacher 
and  leader,  to  an  extent  hardly  comprehensible  to  the  newspaper  and 
magazine  surfeited  public  of  to-day.  Mr.  Allen's  inherent  hatred  of 
oppression  and  zealous  championing  of  any  cause  that  commended 
itself  to  his  conscience,  together  with  a  supreme  talent  for  enforcing  his 
opinions  by  tongue  and  pen,  made  him  an  oracle  to  his  flock.  When 
the  hour  came  that  called  men  to  declare  themselves  as  Whig  or  Tory 
— as  for  the  rights  of  the  colonies  or  for  the  kino; — he  was  one  of  the 
first  to  resent  and  resist  the  royal  exactions.  Early  in  1774  the  "  spirit 
of  '76  "  had  gained  such  headway  that  the  Colonial  and  Royalist 
sheep  and  goats  were  pretty  well  separated  and  known.  The  League 
and  Covenant  to  buy  no  English  goods  to  be  imported,  purchased,  or 
consumed,  by  which  men  were  pledged  to  use  every  effort  to  produce 
substitutes  themselves,  was  presented  to  all.  and  those  who  would 
not  sign  it  within  forty-eight  hours  were  to  be  subjected  to  a  rigorous 
boycott.  Mr.  Allen's  position  is  clearly  defined  by  the  following  record 
of  a  resolution,  "passed  in  full  "  at  town-meeting  the  15th  of  August. 

"  Whereas  Major  Israel  Stoddard,  and  Woodbridge  Little  Esq., 
have  exhibited  several  charges  against  the  Rev.  Thomas  Allen,  thereby 
endeavoring  to  injure  his  reputation,  in  respect  to  what  he  said  and  did 
in  a  late  town-meeting,  in  defence  of  the  rights  and  liberties  of  the 
people  ;  wherein  they  charge  the  said  Thomas  with  rebellion,  treason, 
and  sedition,  and  cast  many  other  infamous  aspersions,  tending  to  en- 
danger not  only  the  reputation  but  the  life  of  said  Thomas  ; — Voted, 
That  all  the  foregoing  charges  are  groundless,  false,  and  scandalous  ; 
and  that  the  said  Thomas  is  justifiable,  in  all  things  wherein  he  hath 
been  charged  with  the  crimes  aforesaid  ;  and  that  he  merited  the  thanks 
of  the  town  in  every  thing  wherein  he  hath  undertaken  to  defend  the 
rights  and  the  privileges  of  the  people  in  this  Province,  and  particularly 
in  his  observations  and  animadversions  on  the  Worcester  Covenant."

NEW  YORK'S  FIRST  MAYOR. 


By  Daniel  H.  Carpenter,  Maplewood,  N.  I. 


ANDREW    wil.LEI'i. 


The  first  Mayor  of  New 
York  was  appointed  to  that 
office  for  the  reason  that  he 
was  regarded  as  "  A  very 
honest  and  able  gentleman 
who  would  serve  the  people 
well  for  Mayor  and  Coun- 
sellor, being  also  well 
known  and  popular  among 
all  classes,  and  better  ac- 
quainted with  the  lan- 
guage, manner  and  cus- 
toms of  the  Dutch  than 
any  other  Englishman." 

Thomas  Willett,  who 
received  the  above  felici- 
tous recommendation  from 
the  Governor  of  theColony, 
assumed  the  office  on  June 
12,  1665, — and  according- 
ly became  the  first  Mayor 
of  New  York,  which,  hith- 
erto, by  its  early  settleis, 
citizens  and  burghers,  had 
borne  the  name  of  New 
Amsterdam.  And  it  will 
not  be  amiss  to  say  that 
there  is  nothing  tending  to 
show  that  the  recommen- 
dation of  Gov.  Nicholls 
was  ever  in  any  way  abused, 
something  that,  probably, 
not  all  who  have  since  oc- 
cupied that  office  have  al- 
lowed their  descendants  to 
claim. 

It  is  not  the  intention 
of  this  article  to  enter  into 
details  regarding  the  events 
of  the  period  during  which 
Thomas  Willett  was  the 
Chief  Officer  of  the  city. 
"  History  tells  of  that."  I 
desire,  instead,  to  give  the 
results  of  a  patient  research 
made  in  order  to  establish

correct  data  as  to  his  parentage,  birth,  and  place  of  nativity.  And  I 
think  what  I  have  gathered  will  amply  show  that  such  correct  data  was 
needed  ;  and  that  there  is  room  for  the  additional  facts  which  the  search 
has  brought  to  light. 

During  the  summer  of  1896  I  visited  Swansea,  R.  I.,  the  home  of 
Thomas  Willett  at  the  close  of  his  life.  Here,  at  Bullocks  Cove  Ceme- 
tery, he  and  his  wife  are  buried.  The  plain  memorial  stones  marking 
their  graves  say  that  "  he  died  Aug.  4th,  1674,  in  his  64th  year,"  and 
that  "his  wife  died  Jan.  8th,  1669,  aged  about  Sj  years."  This,  if 
true,  would  make  the  year  of  Mrs.  Willett's  birth  1584,  and  so  twenty- 
six  years  older  than  her  husband.  Looking  over  my  memoranda,  I 
found  that  Mrs.  WilleWs  mother  was  born  in  the  year  1584  !  This 
made  it  evident  that  the  dates  on  the  tombstones  were  altogether  in  the 
wrong.  A  careful  investigation  convinced  me  that  the  inscriptions  on 
the  stones  had  at  some 
time  been  re-cut,  and  that 
the  "85  years"  of  Mrs. 
Willett  had  originally  been 
"65  years"  and  the  64th 
year  of  Mr.  Willett  was 
6glh  in  the  original.  (See 
photo  on  page  196.) 

The  winter  just  closed 
(1896-97)  furnished  the 
opportunity  for  a  visit  to 
England,  and  while  in  Liv- 
erpool, at  the  Free  Library, 
I  happily  came  across  a  vol- 
ume which  contained  "The 
Life  and  Death  of  Dr. 
Andrew  Willett,"  by  Rev. 
Peter*  Smith,  published 
1634.  And  at  the  British 
Museum,  London,  I  found 

catalogued  some  thirty-nine  volumes,  written  and  published  by  said  Dr. 
Andrew  Willett  while  he  was  rector  of  "Barley."  Knowing  that  this 
was  the  father  of  "  New  York's  First  Mayor,"  I  determined  to  go  to  Bar- 
ley Parish,  and  learn  what  I  could  of  his  early  home.  And  here  is 
another  error  in  the  generally  accepted  account  of  the  place  where 
Thomas  Willett  was  born  :  its  location  is  put  down  as  being  in  Wiltshire, 
whereas  it  is  in  the  eastermost  bounds  of  Hertfordshire,  only  fifteen  miles 
from  Cambridge,  forty  miles  from  London,  and  leagues  away  from 
Wiltshire. 

I  set  out  from  King's  Cross  on  Saturday,  January  23,  1897,  via  Great 
Northern  Railway.  It  was  the  day  after  "the  great  snowstorm  in  Eng- 
land," a  storm  that  not  only  filled  the  columns  of  the  English  newspapers, 
but  as  well  filled  all  the  lanes  to  Barley.     I  was  set  down  at  Royston,  and

*  Reverend  "Dr.  Peter  Smith"  married  Tacobina.  the  daughter  of  Dr.  Andrew 
Willett,  and  became  the  rector  of  Barley  some  little  while  after  the  death  of  Dr. 
Willett,  so  well  knew  of  whom  he  was  writing.  The  Parish  Register  says  that  his 
wife  Jacobina  was  baptized  November  26,  1592,  and  was  buried  April  10,  1650.  He 
died  August  22,  1657. 


IQ2  New  York's  First  Mayor.  [October, 

as  there  is  no  such  thing  as  "a  sleigh  "  in  all  the  land,  I  had  to  take  a 
"wagonette  "  and  go  about  five  miles  further  to  Barley  Rectory.  The 
roads,  mere  lanes  in  width,  with  hedges  on  either  side,  were  drifted  so 
full  that  in  many  places  the  snow  was  as  high  as  the  wheels  of  the  wagon- 
ette. Ours  was  the  first  vehicle  through,  and  only  for  the  good  stout 
horse  and  a  careful  driver  I  fear  the  trip  would  have  been  a  failure.  The 
progress  was  slow  indeed,  but  at  last  I  was  safely  landed  at  my  destina- 
tion. I  was  cordially  welcomed  by  the  rector,  Rev.  J.  Frome  Wilkinson, 
and  soon,  in  his  well-appointed  library,  where  a  cheerful  wood  fire  burned 
in  the  grate,  I  was  ready  for  my  task.* 

A  few  words  about  this  ancient  town  will  not  come  amiss.  It  is  as 
old  as  "The  Doomsday  Book  "  (a.d.  iioo).  Cottages,  known  to  have 
been  occupied  at  least  three  centuries,  with  thatched  roofs  (a  yard  thick), 
overhang  the  foot-walks  and  crowd  the  cartways  of  the  two  narrow  streets  ; 
a  town  hall,  equally  as  old,  gabled,  thatched,  and  sadly  out  of  plumb  ; 
one  or  two  modern  dwellings,  a  small,  neat  brick  school-house,  the  usual 
village  inn,  with  a  suggestive  signboard  passing  over  and  entirely  across 
the  street,  with  rudely  carved  figures  of  hares,  hounds,  and  riders  all 
headed  for  "The  Inn  " — these,  aside  from  the  church  and  rectory,  con- 
stitute the  village,  quaint  and  picturesque  as  any  traveller  or  artist  need 
wish  for. 

The  church  is  a  fine  old  English  edifice,  rebuilt  at  intervals,  till  only 
the  tower  was  left,  which  contains  parts  eight  hundred  years  old.  Its 
archives  furnish  a  complete  list  of  the  names  of  its  rectors  for  over  six 
hundred  years.  In  the  aisles  and  vestry  there  are  a  number  of  interest- 
ing mural  monuments,  tablets,  and  brasses  ;  many  others  were  destroyed 
or  lost  in  "the  restoration  of  the  church  "  and  in  the  building  of  the 
north  aisle  (1870).  The  present  pulpit  was  put  in  shortly  after  the  death 
of  Dr.  Andrew  Willett;  it  is  of  oak,  beautifully  and  artistically  carved,  a 
fine  specimen  of  the  woodwork  of  that  period.  It  stands  on  the  north- 
erly side  of  the  church,  just  off  the  middle  aisle.  The  rectory  is  of  com- 
paratively recent  date,  roomy,  and  of  architectural  proportions.  It  is 
built  on  the  site  of  the  former  rectory,  very  much  of  the  material  of  that 
building  being  used  in  its  construction. 

I  began  my  search  by  taking  up  "The  Paris"h  Register,"  which  com- 
mences with  the  year  1559.  With  a  very  few  exceptions,  it  is  in  fair  con- 
dition, and  from  it  I  made  note  of  every  entry  relative  to  the  Willett 
name  from  that  date  down  to  the  year  17CO.  I  found  there  the  date  of 
burial  of  Mr.  Thomas  Willelt and 'of  his  wife  Elizabeth  f  (thev,  grandparents 
of  our  Mayor  Thomas),  of  whom  Dr.  Peter  Smith  writes  that  "Mr. 
Thomas  Willett,  the  father  of  Dr.  Andrew  Willett,  was  born  in  the  year 
1 5  10.  He  was  a  grave  divine,  a  Sub-almoner  to  King  Edward  VI.,  who 
during  the  reign  of  Queen  Mary  was  not  only  deprived  of  his  service, 
but  was  likewise  enforced  for  his  conscience  to  forsake  his  first  promo- 
tion in  the  Church  at  Windsor,  and  betake  himself  to  the  house  of 
a  truly  noble  gentleman,  who,  as  a  faithful  Obadiah    hid  him  in  these 


s  I  had  made  this  appointment  with  the  rector,  else,  I  can  assure  the  reader,  I 
would  not  have  ventured  on  such  a  journey. 

+  This  entry  is  as  follows  : 

"  Elizabeth  the  wife  of  Mr.  Thomas  Willett,  parson  of  the  town  was  buried  17th 
March,  1 3S9. 

"  Mr.  Thomas  Willett,  parson,  in  his  S>th  year,  was  buried  15th  of  April,  159S."

days  of  persecution.  His  life  long  friend,  Dr.  Richard  Cox,  fled  to  Ger- 
many, being  hunted  out  of  the  country  ;  but  when  Queen  Elizabeth  came 
to  the  throne,  she  recalled  him  and  advanced  him  to  the  Bishopric  of 
Ely.  Mr.  Thomas  Willett  hastened  to  repair  to  his  old  friend,  is  lovingly 
embraced  and  preferred  to  a  prebend  in  his  cathedral  (Ely).  Nor  this 
alone  :  for  a  messenger  not  long  after  came  unto  the  good  Bishop  and 
told  him  that  the  parson  of  Barley,  in  Hertfordshire,  was  dead  ;  to  whom 
the  Bishop  made  answer,  '  He  is  not  dead,'  but  the  messenger  still 
avouching  that  he  was  dead  and  buried,  the  Bishop  again  replies,  'I 
tell  you  the  parson  of  Barley  is  not  dead,  for  there  he  sits,'  pointing  to 
Mr.  Willett,  who  was  then  sitting  at  his  table."  So  it  was  that  Mr. 
Thomas  Willett  on  April  3,  1571,  was  instituted  Rector  of  Barley.  He 
was  not  a  University  man  (hence  his  simple  appellation  of  "Mr."),  "but 
qualified  for  preaching,  and  had  a  special  license  for  that  purpose  from 
the  Bishop  of  Ely." 

Andrew  Willett,  son  of  the  above  Mr.  Thomas  Willett,  was  born  in 
the  city  of  Ely,  Cambridgeshire,  in  the  year  1562.  He  was  a  pupil  at 
the  Collegiate  school  of  that  city  until  he  was  fourteen  years  of  age,  when 
he  entered  the  University  of  Cambridge,  and  soon  thereafter  was  trans- 
ferred to  Christ's  College,  of  which  he  became  a  fellow,  taking  Holy 
Orders  at  twenty-two  years  of  age. 

In  1589  his  father,  "now  grown  old,"  resigned  his  prebend  in  the 
Cathedral  of  Ely,  which  was  thereupon  by  Queen  Elizabeth  conferred 
upon  him. 

In  this  same  year  he  married  Jacobina,  daughter  of  Thomas  Goad, 
D.D.,  Provost  of  King's  College,  Cambridge,  by  whom,  as  Dr.  Smith 
quaintly  remarks,  "he  was  blessed  with  a  numerous  issue,  eleven  sons 
and  seven  daughters,  of  whom  nine  zndfour  survived  him."  (And  /may 
remark  that  of  these  eighteen  children  fifteen  were  baptized  at  Barley  and 
the  other  three  are  accounted  for.)  The  following  nine  years  he  seems 
to  have  performed  the  duties  of  Parish  Rector  for  his  aged  father,  who,  as 
before  stated,  died  in  1598,  after  which  event  he  was  appointed  to  the 
rectorship  of  the  parish  by  his  father's  old  friend  Bishop  Cox. 

Dr.  Andrew  Willett  was  a  voluminous  writer,  as  his  preserved 
works  amply  prove.  Several  of  his  books  went  through  two  or  three 
editions  before  his  death,  and  very  recently  (1852)  the  ten  volumes  of 
his  "Synopsis  Papismi  "  were  reprinted.  He  was  also  much  sought  after 
as  a  preacher  in  London,  Cambridge,  and  elsewhere,  and  his  fame  as  a 
controversialist  was  widely  extended.  But,  above  all,  it  was  among  his 
humble  parishioners  and  in  his  home  life  that  we  see  him  at  his  best. 
We  are  told  of  his  charity  and  sacrifices  to  the  poor  of  his  parish,  and 
that  his  home  was  a  little  model  of  a  church  and  house  of  God.  His 
children  were  daily  required  to  commit  a  portion  of  Scriptures  to 
memory. 

"  His  manner  was  to  arise  early,  coming  downe  at  the  houre  of  prayer 
and  take  his  familie  with  him  to  the  church  were  service  was  daily  read. 
This  being  ended  he  returnes  unto  his  taske  againe  until  neere  dinner 
time  ;  when  he  did  recreate  himselfe  awhile  by  either  playing  upon  a 
little  organ,  which  hee  had  in  his  house  singing  unto  itt  :  or  else  sporting 
himselfe  with  his  younge  children,  condescending  unto  any  kinde  of 
delight  which  was  not  unseemly  or  uncomely — Sometimes  hee  would  use 
cleaving  of  wood  for  exercise — At  his  table  hee  was  always  pleasant  and 


I  g a  .  New  Fork's  First  Mayor.  [October, 

delightful  to  his  company  telling  some  prettie  apothegme  or  facte  tale  or 
other,  which  commonly  hee  would  season  with  some  profitable  applica- 
tion. After  dinner  hee  would  sit  a  while  discoursing,  or  walking  abroad 
makinge  some  little  viewe  aboute  his  grounds,  which  when  he  had 
directed  and  set  in  order,  straightway  hee  to  his  better  imployments 
againe,  untill  supper  time,"  etc. 

Passing  over  other  events  of  his  life  equally  worthy  of  record,  we 
come  to  its  closing  hours.  He  had  been  up  to  London  and  was  on  his 
way  homewards  when  his  horse  stumbled  and  threw  him  heavily  to  the 
ground,  breaking  his  leg.  A  surgeon  was  obtained,  the  broken  limb  put 
in  place,  and  every  encouragement  of  a  speedy  recovery  given,  when  sud- 
denly on  the  tenth  day  after  the  accident,  with  scarcely  a  warning  word,  he 
expired.  His  parishioners  tenderly  conveyed  his  remains  to  his  late 
home,  and  four  days  after  his  death,  on  December  8,  1621,  he  was  buried 
in  his  church  in  front  of  the  pulpit,  "and  covered  with  a  faire  grave  stone 
of  marble."  On  the  brass  set  up  to  his  memory  in  the  church  is  the 
engraved  portrait  of  him,  with  the  inscription  shown  opposite. 

Jacobina,  the  wife  of  Dr.  Andrew  Willett,  was  buried  July  11,  1637. 
Her  tomb  is  in  the  same  place  as  that  of  her  husband  and  has  an  inscrip- 
tion stating  that  she  was  daughter  of  Thomas  Goad,  D.D. 

Such  were  the  worthy  parents  and  grandparents  of  Thomas  Willett, 
"New  York's  First  Mayor."  Here,  at  Barley,  in  Hertfordshire,  he  was 
born,  and  in  this  old  parish  church  he  was  baptized,  the  register  saying, 
"  1605,  Aug.  29.  Then  was  christened  Thomas  Willett,  filius,  Andrew 
Willett,  Rectorius."  Of  his  early  boyhood  we  have  not  a  single  word, 
but  we  can  assuredly  believe  that  "  his  education  "  was  not  neglected, 
and  that  the  associations  of  home  and  church  were  of  a  character  to 
make  an  "honest  and  able  gentleman  "  of  him.  He  was  but  sixteen 
years  of  age  at  the  death  of  his  father,  and  most  likely  remained  at  Barley 
with  the  family  until  he  had  reached  his  majority. 

In  1629  we  find  him  in  Holland,  where  he  was  associated  with  the 
Leyden  Congregation.  He  spent  three  years  here,  and  thus  obtained 
that  knowledge  of  the  Dutch  language  and  customs  which  afterwards 
was  so  useful  to  him.  In  1632  he  arrived  on  the  ship  Lion  at  Plymouth, 
New  England,  and  at  once  identified  himself  with  that  colony,  becoming 
a  freeman  on  January  1,  1633. 

On  July  6,  1636,  he  married  Mary  Brown,  whose  parents,  John  and 
Dorothy  Brown,  were  at  Leyden  as  early  as  1620.  She  was  born  about 
1604,  and  no  doubt  it  was  at  Leyden  that  Mr.  Willett  first  became 
acquainted  with  the  family.  Thirteen  children  were  the  issue  of  this 
happy  marriage. 

From  1633  to  1663  Mr.  Willett  was  most  intimately  connected  with 
the  prosperity  of  Plymouth  Colony.  He  was  largely  engaged  in  ship- 
ping and  mercantile  interests.  His  vessels  were  principally  employed  in 
the  coasting  trade  between  Boston  and  New  Amsterdam,  but  occasionally 
went  as  far  as  Virginia,  and  thence  to  Holland.  For  fourteen  consecu- 
tive years  he  was  assistant  to  the  General  Court,  serving  also  as  Surveyor 
of  Highways,  captain  of  the  military  force,  and  delegate  to  Massachu- 
setts for  advice  and  counsel,  etc.  Being  thus  widely  acquainted  and  a 
thorough  business  man,  it  was  no  more  than  could  be  expected  that  on 
the  surrender  of  New  Amsterdam  to  the  English  he  should  be  the 
chosen  one  to  fill  the  office  of  Mayor.

Xew  York's  First  Mayor. 


[October, 


After  a  service  of  two  years  as  Mayor,  and  Alderman  one  year,  he 
thought  it  to  his  best  interests  to  remove  to  Swansea,  where  in  1665  he 
had  a  large  property  granted  to  him.  And  here  we  find  him  on  March 
5,  166S.  Only  a  short  time  after  this  date,  viz.,  on  January  8,  1669, 
his  wife  died,  and  on  September  19,  1671,  he  married  Joanna,  widow  of 
Rev.  Peter  Prudden  of  Milford,  Conn,  (her  maiden  name  being  Boyse). 
She  survived  him,  and  was  again  married  to  Rev.  John  Bishop. 

On  April  26,  1671,  Mr.  Willett  made  his  will,  a  very  plain  and 
businesslike  document,  disposing  of  his  property,  which  was  large  for 
that  day,  in  an  equitable  manner  among  his  children,  with  a  moderate 
bequest  to  the  church  of  his  choice.  This  will  was  proved  on  November 
25,  1674,  he,  as  previously  shown,  having  deceased  August  4th  of  that 
year. 

The  photograph  at  the  close  of  this  article  shows  the  exact  condition

*  9  John  Otis  was  born  November  21,  1657.  This  family  came  from 
Hingham  to  Barnstable.  He  married,  July  18,  16S3,  Mercy,  youngest 
daughter  of  Nathaniel  Bacon  and  Hannah  his  wife,  daughter  of  Rev. 
John  Mayo.  Mercy  was  born  February  8,  1660;  she  was  sister  of  Es- 
quire John  Bacon,  father  of  Desire,  who  married  William  Green.  John 
Otis,  Jr.,  born  Barnstable,  England,  January  14,  1622,  died  January  16, 
1683  ;  in  his  will,  dated  the  same  year,  he  remembers  his  eldest  daughter 
Mary,  wife  of  John  Gowin  [Gorham],  also  Hannah  and  Elizabeth. f 
Mary  Otis  married  Col.  John  Gorham.  John  Otis,  born  at  Hingham, 
1657,  married  Mercy  (or  Mary)  Bacon,  July  18,  1683.  He  was  twenty 
years  representative,  eighteen  years  commander  of  the  militia  of  the 
county,  thirteen  years  Chief  Justice  of  Common  Pleas  and  first  Judge  of 
Probate.  Also  twenty-one  years,  till  his  death,  a  member  of  His  Majesty's 
Council.  One  of  his  children,  Colonel  James,  married  Mary  Allyne,  a 
descendant  of  Edward  Doty,  and  their  son  James,  born  at  Barnstable, 
February  5,  1725,  was  "the  patriot"  in  the  Revolution.  Mercy,  daugh- 
ter of  the  lattei,  married  Gen.  James  Warren  of  Plymouth.  James  Otis, 
son  of  John,  Jr.,  born  1663,  joined  the  Canada  expedition  under  Sir 
William  Phipps  ;  was  at  the  taking  of  Port  Royal  and  was  killed  in  the 
attack  on  Quebec. 

10  This  seems  to  be  exact.  Stephen  was  born  January  2^,  1683, 
and  died  in  1743.  The  number  of  children  agrees  with  the  record  pre- 
served, but  facts  about  his  trade  and  the  wedding  with  Elizabeth  Gardner 
are  new.  Mr.  Frank  W.  Sprague,  writing  from  Florence,  Italy,  con- 
firms this  ;  he  also  says  :  "The  story  of  the  beginning  of  the  whaling 
industry  is  of  value,  and  another  proof  of  the  value  of  the  '  Wast  Book.' 
Lieut. -Colonel  John  Gorham  having  furnished  whaleboats  to  the  expedition 
of  1697-1707,  shows  they  probably  had  them  as  early  as  16S0.  It  is  here 
shown  his  grandfather  was  in  this  business  at  that  time."' 

"  Col.  Shubael  Gorham,  son  of  Lieut. -Colonel  John,  was  born  in 
Barnstable,  September  2,  1686,  and  married,  December  23,  1708,  his 
cousin,  Mary  Thacher,  daughter  of  Col.  John  Thacher,  of  Yarmouth. 
Col.  Shubael  Gorham  took  an  active  part  in  obtaining  the  grants  made  by 
the  Legislature  of  Massachusetts  to  the  officers  and  soldiers  of  King 
Philip's  War,  and  was  the  chairman  of  the  committee  for  Nanagansett 
No.  7  (now  Gorham,  Me.),  which  was  granted  to  the  officers  and  soldiers 
in  the  company  under  the  command  of  Capt.  John  Gorham.  He  was 
Colonel  of  the  Seventh  Massachusetts  Regiment  in  the  Louisburg  expedi- 
tion, commission  dated  February  20,  1744.  He  was  also  Captain  of  the 
First  Company,  and  died  at  Louisburg,  February  20,  1745  6.  One  of  his 
officers  was  Captain  Edward  Dimock,  whose  sister  married  his  brother 
John. 

Col.  John  Gorham  was  the  oldest  son  of  Col.  Shubael,  and  was  born 
in  Barnstable,  December  12,  1709,  and  married,  March  9,  173 1/2,  Eliza-

Io8  Col.  John  Gor  ham's  "  Wast  Book"  and  the  G  or  ham  Family.  [October, 

beth  Allyn,  daughter  of  James  Allyn  and  Susannah  Lewis.  He  resided 
in  Barnstable  until  1742.  In  1743  he  was  granted  400  acres  of  land  in 
Gorham,  Me.,  on  condition  that  he  should  finish  the  saw-mill  and  grist- 
mill that  he  had  begun  there.  He  did  not  become  a  permanent  resident 
there,  however.  In  the  year  1744  he  was  stationed  in  command  of  a 
party  of  provincial  troops  at  Annapolis  Royal,  which  place  being  threat- 
ened by  the  enemy,  he  was  sent  by  Governor  Mascarene  to  Boston  to 
raise  troops  for  its  defence.  While  there  he  was  induced  by  Governor 
Shirley  to  join  the  expedition  then  fitting  out  against  Cape  Breton. 
Having  raised  a  number  of  men  for  that  expedition,  he  received  the 
appointment  of  Lieutenant-Colonel  of  his  father's  regiment  of  provincials 
and  was  put  in  charge  of  the  whaleboats  which  were  to  land  the  troops. 
On  the  death  of  his  father  at  Louisburg,  he  was  promoted  by  Gen.  Pep- 
perell  to  be  a  full  colonel.  The  following  letter  was  written  by  Col. 
Gorham,  July  5,  1 75 1,  from  Halifax,  to  Gen.  Pepperell  : 

"I  did  your  message  to  our  Governor,  who  since  tells  me  he  has 
wrote  your  honor. 

"I  will  take  the  freedom  to  remind  your  honor  how  I  came  to  be  in 
that  glorious  expedition  against  Louisburg. 

"  I  was  sent  up  to  recruit  from  Annapolis  Royal,  by  Governor  Masca- 
rene, as  that  fort  was  then  in  great  danger  of  falling  into  the  hands  of  the 
enemy,  and  this  expedition  being  then  in  embryo,  I  was  importuned  by 
Governor  Shirley  and  desired  by  your  honor  and  many  more  of  the 
council,  to  raise  a  number  of  men,  and  purchase  whaleboats  and  proceed 
in  the  expedition,  as  I  did,  upon  condition  of  my  having  the  liberty  of 
going  home  with  your  honor's  packet  in  my  own  sloop,  once  the  English 
flag  should  be  hoisted  at  Louisburg.  But  I  was  disappointed  in  this, 
and  received  no  commission  in  his  royal  regiment.  My  father  died,  and 
most  of  his  regiment  at  Louisburg.  But  I  thank  you  for  giving  me  the 
commission  of  Colonel  of  my  father's  regiment;  and  I  now  solicit  a  letter 
of  recommendation  abroad,  and  assistance  to  carry  through  my  memorial 
to  the  Legislature  of  Massachusetts.  " 

Col.  Gorham  returned  to  Annapolis  after  the  capture  of  Louisburg, 
and  received  from  Governor  Shirley  the  command  of  the  New  England 
troops  sent  to  Minas  with  Col.  Noble,  but  was  not  present  in  the  engage- 
ment with  the  French  at  Grand  Pre,  where  Noble,  who  was  in  command, 
was  killed.  He  had  afterwards  command  of  a  body  of  Rangers  composed 
principally  of  Indians  raised  in  New  England  for  service  in  Acadia. 
Col.  Gorham  came  from  Annapolis  with  the  Rangers  to  Chebucto  in 
June,  1749,  and  was  appointed  to  the  Council  of  Governor  Cornwallis, 
and  was  present  at  the  first  meeting,  July  14,  1749.  It  is  uncertain 
whether  he  held  a  seat  in  the  Council  at  Annapolis,  as  there  are  no 
records  of  the  Council  to  be  found  between  1745  and  1749,  and  but  one 
entry  in  1748,  in  which  his  name  does  not  appear.  Cornwallis,  however, 
assigned  him  a  place  at  the  Board  above  those  gentlemen  who  came  with 
him  from  England.  He  is  called  Captain  in  the  list  of  Cornwallis's 
Council,  which  was  probably  his  rank  in  the  regular  army,  that  of  Colonel 
being  only  militia  rank.  He  was  recommended  to  the  consideration  of 
the  Government  by  Gen.  Pepperell  for  his  services  at  Louisburg,  and  it 
is  probable  that  the  military  rank  of  Captain  was  then  conferred  on  him. 
Col.  Gorham's  name  is  among  those  of  the  Council  at  a  meeting  on 
July  11,  1 7 5 1 .      He   must  have  died  soon  after,  for  an  inventory  of  his 


1897.]   Col.  John  Gorham  s  "  Was/  Book  "  and  the  Gorham  Family,      jog 

estate  is  in  the  Suffolk  County  Probate  records,  Mass.,  probated  May  7, 
1752.  His  widow  soon  after  married  Capt.  John  Stevens  and  moved  to 
Gloucester,  Mass. 

Joseph  Gorham,  brother  of  Colonel  John,  was  also  a  distinguished 
soldier,  and  attained  the  rank  of  Major-General  in  the  British  Army. 
He  was  born  in  Barnstable,  May  29,  1725  ;  was  perhaps  at  Louisburg 
with  his  father  in  1745  ;  was  a  lieutenant  of  Rangers  under  Gov.  Corn- 
wallis  in  1749.  He  was  Captain  of  Rangers  under  Gen.  Amherst  in 
1758  and  1759.  He  went  to  England  about  this  time  to  endeavor  to 
have  his  Rangers  put  on  the  establishment  of  regular  troops,  and  was  the 
bearer  of  a  letter  from  Gen.  Amherst  to  Gov.  Lawrence,  dated  April  30, 
1760,  from  which  the  following  is  an  extract  : 

"I  send  you  this,  by  Capt.  Gorham,  who  is  lately  returned  from 
England  where  he  has  been,  to  endeavor  to  get  rank,  and  to  get  his 
company  put  on  the  establishment  ;  concerning  which,  Lord  Barrington 
has  desired  my  opinion,  which  I  have  given  him,  as  far  as  relates  Capt. 
Gorham  personally,  and,  I  make  no  doubt  but  he  will  be  promoted,  as 
he  is  very  deserving  of  it ;  I  have,  as  yet,  suspended  my  judgment,  in  re- 
lation to  the  establishment  of  his  company.  His,  is  certainly  the  best  I 
have  seen  of  Rangers,  but  the  best,  according  to  me  is  no  extraordinary 
thing  ;  however,  if  you  should  think  that  the  augmenting  of  that  com- 
pany, or  the  establishment  of  two,  would  be  of  any  real  service  or 
advantage  to  the  Province  of  Nova  Scotia,  I  shall,  upon  your  answer, 
recommend  this  affair  to  the  Secretary  of  War." 

The  establishment  of  Gorham's  Rangers  as  regular  troops,  under 
Joseph  Gorham  as  Major-commandant,  dates  from  September  25,  1761. 
In  1763  his  troops  were  disbanded,  and  in  September  he  again  went  to 
England.  In  1766  he  again  went  to  England  and  was  appointed  a 
member  of  the  Halifax  Council,  taking  his  seat  on  Dececember  20,  1766. 
In  1770  he  became  Lieutenant-Governor  of  Placentia  in  Newfoundland  ; 
in  May,  1772,  he  became  a  Lieutenant-Colonel,  and  in  June  vacated  his 
seat  as  member  of  the  Halifax  Council.  In  1776  he  was  in  command  at 
Fort  Cumberland.  May  16,  1782,  he  became  a  Colonel,  and  April  29, 
1790,  a  Major-General,  probably  dying  soon  after. 

Temperance  Gorham,  daughter  of  the  second  John,  married  Deacon 
Stephen  Clap  of  Scituate,  and  was  the  mother  of  Rev.  Thomas  Clap,  who 
was  for  many  years  President  of  Yale  College.  Another  daughter,  Mary, 
married  Joseph  Hinckley  of  West  Barnstable,  a  nephew  of  Thomas 
Hinckley,  Governor  of  Plymouth.  Her  son,  Isaac  Hinckley,  was  of 
Harvard  College  in  1740,  and  a  classmate  of  Samuel  Adams  and  other 
distinguished  men.  During  the  Revolution  he  was  an  active  patriot,  and 
was  for  many  years  Town  Clerk,  and  one  of  the  Selectmen  of  Barnstable. 

Another  daughter,  Thankful,  married  Lieut.  John  Fuller  ;  and  Mercy 
Gorham,  the  youngest  daughter  of  Lieut.-Col.  John,  married  the  Hon. 
Sylvanus  Bourne,  a  wealthy  merchant.  He  was  many  years  one  of  the 
Governor's  Council,  Register  of  Probate  and  afterwards  judge  of  Probate. 

J=  Joseph  Gorham,  born  February  16,  1654;  died  July  9,  1726; 
married,  1678,  Sarah  Slurgis,  probably  daughter  of  Edward.  She  died  in 
1739.     They  had  : 

i.  Sarah,  born  January  16,  1679. 
ii.   Joseph,  born  April  15,  1681.

Joseph   above  took   out  a  marriage   license  in  Yarmouth,  which  was 
recorded  in   Charlestown,  Mass.,  where   he  married,  November  9,  1708, 
Sarah   Kirk,   who  died   April   28,    1722.     She   was    perhaps  a  niece    or 
younger  sister  of  David   Kirk.     David   senior  was  from   Newfoundland, 

called   "  gentleman,"  married  Mary .       According  to  Wymans,   his 

will,  dated  May  25,  1694,  was  proved  April  S.  1698,  leaving  a  legacy  to 
son  David,  and  remainder  to  his  wife  Mary.  Joseph  and  Sarah  had  two 
children  born  in  Yarmouth  :  George,  born  November  5,  1694,  and 
Mary,  both  baptized  3  (1),  1695.  The  history  of  Charlestown,  Mass., 
also  mentions  "  Sarah,  married  Joseph  Gorham,  1708,"  but  leaves  us  in 
doubt  about  the   relationship.     The   children  by  this  marriage  had  the 

family  names.     Joseph  Gorham  married,  second,  Temperance ■.     The

The  names  of  the  wives  of  Joseph  Gorham,  Senior  and  Junior,  were 
unknown  to  Amos   Otis.     The   latter  was    discovered    by  Miss    Louise 
TYacey  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  who  found  the  record  in  Yarmouth,  giv- 
ing day  and  month.     She  says   they  removed  to  Stratford,  Conn.,  about

I  am  indebted  for  the  copy  of  the  "  Wast  Book."  and  much  of  the  mat- 
ter herein,  has  a  copy  of  the  will  of  Joseph  Gorham,  in  which  he  names 
"  my  daughter  Mary  Munson."     The  writer  wishes  to  correct   his  mis- 
takes published  in  the  Munson  Record,  II.  731,  where  the  father  of  Joseph 
is  given  as  James,  and  at  the  same  time  I   may  mention  it  is  now  estab- 
lished that  the  mother  of  Elizabeth  Tilley  was  not  Bridget.Van  der  Yelde 
as  mentioned  on  the  same  page. 

In  the  History  of  Stratford,  I.  219,  we  read  :  "  Joseph  Gorham  died

1722  ;  the  above  error  is  probably  typographical.  Born  1685.  married  at 
twenty-three  in  1708,  died  at  thirty-seven  in  1722.  The  mark  on  the

11.  Jonathan4,  son  of  Lieutenant  Jonathan3  and  Grace,  was  born  at 
Stamford,  January  15,  1693.  He  was  a  prominent  man  in  the  town,  and 
his  judgment  was  taken  in  many  matters  of  importance  to  the  welfare  of 
the  town.  For  nine  years  he  was  Selectman  of  Stamford  ;  was  Ensign  of 
the  Military  Company,  and  in  1736  was  appointed  School  Commissioner 
for  the  district  east  of  Noroton  River. 

In  1742,  when  the  Episcopalians,  or,  as  they  were  called  in  the  town 
records,  "  professors  of  the  Church  of  England,"  petitioned  "  for  a  place 
to  build  a  church-house,"  the  town  officials  referred  the  matter  to  Ensign 
Jonathan  Bell,  as  chairman  of  a  committee  to  investigate  ''  if  in  their 
judgment  a  place  might  be  granted  to  them  without  damage  to  the  town." 
The  decision  of  this  committee  is  of  interest,  as  showing  the  feeling 
toward  other  denominations  than  were  considered  the  orthodox  church  in 
the  community.  After  careful  consideration  of  the  matter,  it  is  decided 
that  a  plot  of  land,  45  by  35  feet,  a  ledge  of  loose  rock,  bounded  east  and 
north  by  an  almost  impassable  swamp,  might  be  granted  to  the  petitioners 
without  material  damage  to  the  town,  so  soon  as  the  committee  might  be 
able  to  lay  it  out. 

From   the   church    records  of  the  Middlesex  Society,  it  appears  that

Ensign  Bell  was  a  leading  spirit  in  the  church,  and  also  that  he  possessed 
some  musical  ability.  At  a  meeting  of  the  Society  it  was  voted  that 
Ensign  Jonathan  Bell  "  shall  sing  or  tune  the  psalm  in  times  of  public 
worship,  and  that  he  may  tune  it  in  the  old  or  new  way  as  it  suits  him 
best."

ber, 164 1.  The  book  itself  is  much  older  than  New  England,  and  from 
facts  connected  with  its  history,  we  hazard  nothing  in  saying  that  it  came 
with  the  Pilgrim  Fathers,  and  perhaps  landed  with  them  from  the  May- 
flower upon  the  Rock  at  Plymouth." 

Hinman,  in  the  "First  Connecticut  Settlers,"  on  page  114,  says: 
"  Some  of  the  descendants  of  Francis  Bell  have  a  Bible  which  was  brought 
to  New  England  in  the  Mayflower." 

Mercy  Bell  at  her  death  bequeathed  this  "  Honored  Volume  "  to  her 
brother,  Isaac  Bell  (35). 

35.  Isaac5  was  son  of  Abraham4  and  Marcy,  and  married  at  Stamford, 
1st,  Anne  Dibble,  July  5,  1801.  She  died  August  27,  1802,  leaving  no 
issue.  Isaac  married  2d,  March  28,  1813,  Charity  Knapp,  widow  of 
Abel  Knapp,  of  Stamford.  She  was  born  June  14,  1777,  and  was  the 
daughter  of  John  and  Charity  (Smith)  Judson  of  Stamford.  Charity 
Smith,  her  mother,  was  the  daughter  of  Gabriel  Smith  and  Mary  Bell  (16), 
and  was  born  at  Stamford,  July  4,  1747.  Isaac5  was  the  sixth  owner  of 
the  Bell  Bible.     His  children  by  second  wife  were  : 

i.  Abraham,  born  January  16,  1814  ;  died  soon  after. 
44.     ii.   Abraham5,  born  January  22,   1816.

MARTIN    VAN    BUREN,    WITH    A    SKETCH    OF    THE    VAN 
BUREN    FAMILY  IN   AMERICA. 


By  Frank  T-  Conkling. 


(Continued  from  Vol.  XXVIII.,  p.  125.  of  The  Record.) 

Marten"  Cornelisse  (son  of  Cornelis  Maessen)  was  the  ancestor  of 
President  Martin  Van  Buren.  He  deposed  in  1660  that  he  was  born  in 
Houten  in  the  Province  of  Utrecht,  and  was  probably  not  more  than  two 
years  of  age  when  his  parents  came  to  this  country.      He  was  presumably 


208  Martin    Van  Burcn  and  the    Van  Buren  Family.      [October 

married  when  in  1662  he  sold  his  home,  located  "This  side  of  Bethle- 
hem "  (less  than  two  miles  below  Albany),  to  Gysbert  Cornelisse  (Van 
den  Berg).  In  1665  he  leased  half  of  Constapels  Island  in  the  river  be- 
low Albany.  He  and  his  wife  were  members  of  the  Dutch  Church  at 
Albany  in  1683.  Were  enrolled  as  having  joined  previous  to  that  year. 
In  December  of  same  year  he  paid  the  church  for  the  use  of  the  "  large 
pall,"  indicating  that  he  had,  about  that  time,  buried  an  adult  member 
of  his  family.  The  census  of  1697  credits  his  family  with  a  member- 
ship of  "two  men,  no  women,  one  child."  In  1700  he  was  Cap- 
tain of  a  military  company  in  the  regiment  commanded  by  Col.  Pieter 
Schuyler.  He  married,  first,  Maritje,  daughter  of  Pieter  Quackenbosch  and 
Marritje  his  wife.  She  was  more  than  likely  the  adult  member  of  his  family 
buried  in  1683,  as  on  May  7,  1693,  "Marten"  Cornelisse,  widower  of 
Marritje  Quackenbosch,"  was  married  to  '' Tanneke  Adams,  widow  of 
Pieter  Winne, "  the  latter  wife  probably  having  died  previous  to  the 
census  of  1697.  He  made  his  will  April  10,  1703,  proved  June  7,  1710 
(he  having  died  the  latter  year),  and  mentioned  the  following  children  : 

i.    Cornell's*  Martense,  born ,  married,  September  22,   16S9, 

Ariaantje  Gerritse  (Van  den  Bergh).  He  died  previous  to 
June  23;  1693,  on  which  day  his  widow  married  Coenradt 
Elmendorf  of  Kingston,  N.  Y.  Cornells3  left  one  son, 
Tobias4,  baptized  August  3,  1690,  who  was  mentioned  in 
the  will  of  his  grandfather,  Marten2  Cornelis,  and  who  be- 
came the  ancestor  of  the  Ulster  County  Van  Burens. 

ii.   Cornelia*  Martense,  born ,  married,  September  22,  16S9, 

Robert  Teuwise  (Van  Deusen).

Ariaantje  Barentse  (daughter  of  Barent  Meindersen  and 
Eytje  (Ida)  his  wife).  They  were  great-grandparents  of 
the  President,  and  will  be  mentioned  again. 

iv.  Marritje3  Martense,  born ,  married,  first,  March  14,  1695, 

Jans  Teuwise  (Van  Deusen).  Second,  December  20,  1702,

v.   Marten3  Martense,  born  .     He  was  buried  near  his  own 

home  in  Rensselaerswyck,  October  23,  1740.  He  was  a 
freeholder  of  Rensselaerswyck  in  1720,  as  was  his  son 
Barent  in  1743,  who  probably  had  inherited  the  home- 
stead. He  and  his  wife  were  members  of  the  Dutch  Church 
at  Albany.  He  married,  first,  about  1700,  Judikje  Ba- 
rentse, daughter  of  Barent  Meindersen.  They  had  children 
baptized  at  Albany  as  follows  : 
i.  Marritje*,  born  January  1,  1701  ;   married,    May  24,  1722, 

Johannes  Vosburgh.  She  died  about  1725. 
ii.  Barent*,  born  September  6,  1702;  married,  first,  December 
23>  1 737.  Margrietje  Van  Vechten.  Second,  about  1746, 
Catalvntje  Van  Buren,  widow  of  Jacob  J.  Schermerhorn. 
She  was  daughter  of  Cornelis,  son  of  Hendrick  Cornelisse 
Van  Buren.  Barent  had  three  children  by  his  first  wife  ; 
four  daughters  and  one  son  (William*)  by  his  second.

Cornelisse. 
v.  Tobias",  born  April  30,  1710-;  married,  Marritje  Hun.  He 
probably  died  about  the  time  of  the  birth  of  his  only  child, 
Harmen6,  in  1736,  who  became  a  Major  in  the  Revolu- 
tionary War. 
vi.  Jannetje",  born  April  20,  1712  ;  married,  February  27, 174 1, 

Abraham  Vin  Hagel. 
vii.  Petrus",  born  June  13,  1714.     Probably  died  young. 
Marten*  Martense,  married,    second,   July   14,    1719,    Maria   Vanden 
Bergh.     The  children  by  this  marriage  were  : 

viii.  Geertruy",  born  January  14,  1720:  married,  Johannes  Hoes. 
ix.  Cornells,"  born  December  17,  1721;  married  Juriaen  Hoes.

vi.   Catalyntje''  (Catharine)  Martense,  born ;  married,  January 

7,  1697,  Jonathan  Janse  Whitbeck. 

vii.  Magdalena  Martense*,  born  ,  unmarried  when  the  will  of 

her  father  was  made.      She  was  a  widow  in  1734,  when  she 
married  Andries  Huyck. 
Marten2    Cornelisse  probably  had   a   daughter   Teuntje",  who'  married 
Levinus,  son  of  Pieter  VVinne,  and  died  previous  to  1699,  when  Levinus 
married  again. 

3.  Pieter  Martense  Van  Buren  and  Ariaantje  Barentse  his  wife  were 
admitted  to  membership  of  the  Dutch  Church  at  Albany  in  1695,  as 
from  Kinderhook,  where  they  had  probably  settled  about  the  time  of 
their  marriage.  It  appears  that  they  occupied  a  farm  adjoining  that  of 
Pieter  Vosburg,  who  had  married  Jannetie,  sister  of  Ariaantje  Barentse. 
Pieter3  Martense  was  mentioned  in  the  census  of  1697  with  wife  and  three 
children.  He  was  a  freeholder  in  Kinderhook  in  1720,  and  probably 
died  previous  to  1743,  which  year  his  four  eldest  sons  were  mentioned  as 
freeholders  of  Kinderhook.  If  he  left  a  will,  no  evidence  of  it  has  come 
to  light;  but  as  his  children  were  baptized  in  the  Dutch  Church  at 
Albany,  those  records  which  are  extant  from  the  year  1683  are  of  the 
greatest  value  as  being  the  only  source  of  information  in  the  arrangement 
of  his  family.     The  children  were  baptized  in  the  order  as  follows  :  , 

i.    Cornells",  May  14,  1693  >   rnarried,  September  8,  1724,    Maria

4.  Marten  Pieterse  Van   Buren   and   Dirckje   Van   Aelstyne,  the  grand- 
parents of  the  President,  were  married  November  7,  1729.     She  was  born 
in  April,  1710,  the  daughter  of  Abraham  Janse  Van  Aelstyne  and  Mar- 
ritje  Van  Deusen,  his  wife,  who  were  married  January  17,  1694. 

The  children  of  Marten4  Pieterse  Van  Buren  were  baptized  at  Kinder- 
hook  except  as  noted,  and  were  as  follows  : 

i.   Marritje6,  January  18,  1730  ;  died  young, 
ii.   Pieter\  October  27,  1731  ;  died  in  infancy. 
iii.   Pieter\  July    22,   1733  ;  married,   1766,  Catharine   Quacken- 
bosch.     They  were   sponsors  at  the  baptism   of  the  future 
President, 
iv.  Marritje",  April  6,  1735  ;  died  young. 

v.   Abraham''  (father  of  the  President),  baptized  at  Albany,  Feb- 
ruary 27,  1737,  married   Maria  Goes,  widow  of  Johannes

vii.   Marritje*,  October  2,  1743. 
viii.  Marten",  baptized  at  Claverack  in  1748. 
Abraham6  Van  Buren,  the  father  of  the  President,  owned  a  small  farm 
in  the  village  of  Kinderhook,  on  which  he  lived.      His  house,  an  unpre- 
tentious one,  was  also   used  as  a   tavern.      Here  he  brought  the  widow 
Van  Allen,  and   here  she  gave   birth  to  the  chief  subject  of  this  sketch. 
Abraham6,  a  quiet  and  peaceful  man,  gave  valiant  service  to  the  cause  of 
liberty  in  the  war  for  independence.      He  joined  the  patriotic  army,  and 
was  promoted  to  a  captaincy  in  the  regiment  commanded  by  Col.  Abra- 
ham Van  Alstyne,  a  relative   on   his  mother's  side.      His  wife,  it  is  said, 
was  a  distant  relative  on  his  father's  side.     They  were  the  parents  of  five 
children,  as  follows  : 

i.   Dirckie0,    born    in    1777;  died    October    iS,    1865,    in    her 

eighty-ninth  year,

He  was  a  farmer  at  Kinderhook,  and  served  in  the  war  of 
1S12-15,  attaining  the  rank  of  major. 
v.  Abraham6,  baptized  May  n,   1788.     Was  a  lawyer  at  Hud- 
son, X.  Y. 
6.   Martin  Van  Birex,  the  President,  was  born  on  the  fifth  day  of  De- 
cember, 1782.      He   married   in    February,  1807,  Miss   Hannah  Hoes,  a 
kinswoman  of  his  mother,  and  whose  brother  Barent  had  previously  mar- 
ried one  of  Martin's  sisters.      Miss  Hoes  was  born  the  same  year  as  her 
husband.     Their  married  life  though  short  was  a  happy  one.     She  died 
in  February,   1S19,  leaving  four  sons  ;  these  the  President  did  not  suffer 
to  be  brought  up  in   the  care  of  a  stepmother.      He  remained  loyal  to 
the  memory  of  his  departed  wife  to  the  day  of  his  death,  which  occurred 
July  24,   1S62. 

The  President's  children  were  :

goons, from  which  he  resigned  to  become  his  father's  pri- 
vate secretary  in  1837.  He  was  major  and  paymaster  in 
the  war  with  Mexico  (1S47),  ar,d  brevetted  Lieutenant- 
Colonel  for  bravery  in  battle.  He  married  in  November, 
1838,  Angelica,  daughter  of  Richard  Singleton,  a  wealthy 
planter  of  South  Carolina.  She  became  mistress  at  the 
White  House  during  the  remainder  of  Martin  Van  Buren's 
term,  and  died  in  New  York  City,  December  29,  187S.

yer of  considerable  note.  He  was  elected  Attorney  Gen- 
eral of  the  State  of  New  York  in  1845.  In  1841  he  mar- 
ried Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Judge  James  Vanderpoel  of 
■  Kinderhook.  She  died  November  19,  1844,  leaving  one 
child,  a  daughter.  Taking  the  example  of  his  father,  John

Va.,  who  came  there  from   England  in  1674. 

f  I  am  much  indebted  to  Dr.  Thomas  H.  Meikle,  M.D.,  J. P.,  of  Strathearn 
Leigh,  Crieff,  Scotland,  for  the  verification  of  the  arms  as  born  by  the  family  in  this 
country  ;  also  to  Mr.  Archibald  Meikle  for  valuable  data  in  relation  to  the  family 
in  Scotland. 

\  The  evidences  of  the  derivation  of  this  family  from  that  of  Kuggeley  of  Staf- 
fordshire will  be  found  in  The  Record,  Vol.  XXV.,  pp.  164-105.

ISAAC   VAN    DEUSEN    AND    VAN    DEUSEN    MANOR: 
AN   OUTLINE. 


By  Louis  Hasbrouck  Sahler,  Genealogist. 


Isaac  van  Deusen,  the  ancestor  of  the  Van  Deusens  of  Great  Bar- 
rington,  Berkshire  County,  Massachusetts,  and  the  most  prominent 
Dutch  family  in  New  England,  was  born  December  iS,  1704,  at  Claver- 
ack,  Columbia  County,  New  York,  and  was  a  son  of  Abraham  van 
Deusen,  of  Claverack,  and  Jacomyntje  van  Schoonhoven,  and  a  grand- 
son of  Mattheus  Abrahamszen  van  Deursen,  of  Fort  Orange,  now 
Albany,  who  came  with  his  four  brothers,  Isaac,  Jacobus,  Pieter,  and 
Melgert,  from  the  Netherlands  to  New  Amsterdam  about  1650.  The 
grandmother  was  Helena  Roberts. 

He  was  married  January  14,  1730,  at  Kinderhook,  Columbia  County, 
to  Fiche  Burghardt,  an  heiress,  whose  father,  Coonrod  Burghardt,  was  a 
man  of  unusual  abilities,  large  wealth,  prominence,  and  influence,  and 
an  extensive  fur  dealer  along  the  New  England  Path,  which  passed 
through  southern  Hampshire  County,  Massachusetts,  and  in  consequence 
he  became  familiar  with  the  Housatonic,  later  famously  known  as  the 
Stockbridge  Indians,  their  language  and  customs.  Owing  to  these 
relations  his  services  were  secured,  by  the  settling  committee  of  the  Hamp- 
shire County  settlers,  to  purchase  in  1724  a  very  large  tract  of  land  in 
southwestern  Hampshire  County,  for  the  formation  of  the  Upper  and 
Lower  Housatonic  townships,  now  principally  included  in  the  towns  of 
Great  Barnngton  and  Sheffield.  The  western  part  of  Hampshire  County 
was  later  formed  into  Berkshire.  He  removed  to  the  townships  about 
1 73 1,  built  a  mansion,  and  secured  between  two  and  three  thousand  acres 
of  the  finest  lands,  and  is  called  the  founder  of  the  Housatonic  Colony. 

Isaac  van  Deusen  did  not  remove  to  the  townships  until  May,  1785, 
when  he  settled  on  some  of  the  lands  of  his  father-in-law,  near  the  south- 
western base  of  Monument  Mountain,  which  he  later  acquired,  and  built 
a  temporary  home.  He  soon  commenced  to  purchase  lands,  which  prac- 
tice he  continued  until  his  old  age,  so  that  he  and  his  sons,  who  added 
to  their  inherited  estates,  were  the  largest  landholders  in  western  Massa- 
chusetts. 

A  few  years  later  he  built  the  mansion  which  in  time  became  the 
Manor  .House,  as  the  contiguous  lands  were  eventually  formed  into  a 
manor,  not  like  the  New  York  State  manors,  as  the  policy  of  the  two 
States  in  that  respect  was  unlike,  but  because  he  built  three  mansions  on 
his  principal  estate,  which  were  occupied  by  his  three  elder  sons,  Abra- 
ham, Coonrod,  and  John,  as  tenants. 

Unfortunately,  there  has  not  been  handed  down  a  picture  or  descrip- 
tion of  the  manor  buildings  and  grounds,  and  the  most  diligent  inquiries 
have  failed  to  bring  satisfactory  information.  However,  his  wealth  and 
position,  the  houses  still  standing  of  his  building,  and  the  fragmentary 
information  collected  prove  that  he  must  have  lived  like  a  Dutch  gentle- 
man, with  English  influences,  in  a  suitable  home.  After  the  death  of  his 
grandson,  Isaac  van  Deusen  the  Third,  the  buildings  rapidly  fell  into 
decay,  and  were  finally  razed  about  i860.  The  site  and  vicinity  of  the 
house  command  some  of  the  most  beautiful  and  extensive  views  of  the 
16 


2"}A  Isaac  van  Deusen  and  Van  Deusen  Manor.  [October, 

Berkshire  Hills,  which  is  noted  for  its  scenery.  Glimpses  of  the  Housa- 
tonic  valley  and  river,  Monument  Mountain,  which  looks  down  like  a 
guardian  angel,  and  which  has  shared  the  joys  and  sorrows  of  the  family 
for  generations,  the  Dome  of  the  Taconics,  Tom  Ball,  and  East,  West 
Stockbridge,  Sherlock,  and  Long  Lake  Mountains,  the  Sheffield  Valley 
and  Canaan  Hills,  the  villages  of  Great  Barrington  and  Van  Deusen, 
Stockbridge  and  Barrington  roads,  form  at  all  seasons  of  the  year  ideal 
panorama. 

Van  Deusen  Manor  comprised  about  three  thousand  acres  of  the 
finest  lands  in  western  Massachusetts,  on  the  banks  of  the  Housatonic 
River,  while  some  of  the  forest  lands  were  on  Monument  Mountain, 
famed  for  its  majestic  outlines  and  far-spreading  views,  and  its  Indian 
legends,  one  of  which  has  been  retold  by  Bryant.  Isaac  van  Deusen  also 
owned  the  Williams  mansion,  now  in  the  village  of  Van  Deusen,  built  in 
1759,  and  now  the  oldest  well-preserved  house  in  the  town  of  Great 
Barrington,  together  with  saw  and  grist  mills  and  surrounding  lands  and 
estates,  and  tracts  of  land  in  Great  Barrington,  Sheffield,  Egremont,  Stock- 
bridge,  Lee,  and  Richmond,  all  in  Berkshire  County,  Massachusetts,  and 
in  Poultney,  Vermont. 

Besides  the  Manor  House,  Isaac  van  Deusen  built  three  houses  north 
of  it  for  his  three  elder  sons,  one  of  which  was  removed  many  years  ago, 
but  the  other  two  are  still  standing,  one  of  brick  and  one  of  brown  stone. 
He  also  built  a  white  stone  house  in  Lee,  which  still  stands,  for  his  son 
Matthew.  Jacob  received  the  Williams  Mansion,  while  the  youngest  son, 
Isaac  van  Deusen  the  Second,  remained  at  the  Manor  House.  His 
houses  were  all  of  Dutch  architecture. 

In  1787  Isaac  van  Deusen  divided  most  of  his  estates  among  his  sons, 
but  wisely  kept  the  deeds  until  his  death,  when  they  were  recorded.  The 
remainder  of  his  property  he  devised  by  will. 

Isaac  van  Deusen's  family  were  of  the  Dutch  Reformed  Church,  but 
of  course  he  was  taxed  for  the  erection,  in  1742,  and  support  of  the  Con- 
gregational meeting-house  at  Upper  Sheffield,  now  Great  Barrington, 
and  was  one  of  the  landed  gentry  who  purchased  the  fourteen  pews. 
Those  who  did  not  own  pews  were  seated  in  the  centre  of  the  house 
and  in  the  galleries,  according  to  their  estate,  official  position,  and  age, 
and  Isaac  van  Deusen  was  one  of  the  seaters,  which  was  an  important 
and  difficult  office.  In  1743  the  first  pastor,  the  Rev.  Samuel  Hopkins, 
D.D.,  who  gained  distinction  as  a  theologian,  was  called,  but  he  proved 
himself  so  intolerant  in  some  respects  that  Isaac  van  Deusen,  with  his 
sons  and  others,  withdrew  from  the  society  ;  and  the  Van  Deusens  were 
among  the, most  liberal  and  devoted  founders  and  supporters  of  St. 
James  Episcopal  Church.  Great  Barrington,  which  was  a  very  fine 
edifice,  erected  in  1764,  and  which  was  the  first  Episcopal  church  in 
western  Massachusetts. 

Isaac  van  Deusen  was  a  man  of  fine  presence  and  more  than  ordinary 
education.  He  was  interested  in  the  famous  Indian  Mission  at  Stock- 
bridge,  and  gave  towards  its  support.  His  six  sons  were  of  unusual 
height,  from  six  feet  two  inches  to  six  feet  seven  and  a  half  inches. 
Isaac  van  Deusen  was  called,  after  his  settlement  in  the  townships, 
Isaac  van  Deusen  the  Fir>t  and  Rich  Isaac  van  Deusen,  to  distinguish 
him  from  the  many  Isaacs  in  the  five  great  branches  of  the  family  in 
this  country.     His  descendants  continued  the  distinguishing  marks.    At 


1897.]  The  Lyon  Family  0/  Windham  County,  Conn.  235 

the  time  of  the  Revolution,  Isaac  van  Deusen  and  his  sons  remained 
neutral  for  some  time,  as  many  of  the  best  and  wealthiest  men  in  the 
country  did,  but  they  finally  took  the  oath  of  allegiance  to  the  patriots, 
and  performed  some  services. 

In  speaking  of  Isaac  van  Deusen  in  the  history  of  St.  James  Church, 
written  in  1829,  it  says  :  "  He  was  a  devout  man,  of  unblemished  charac- 
ter, of  the  strictest  integrity  and  universally  respected  for  his  benevo- 
lence and  hospitality.  He  was  a  true  patriot,  sober,  meek,  temperate, 
true  and  just  in  all  his  dealings,  a  venerable  man,  and  a  philanthropist. 
He  also  possessed  a  full  share  of  public  confidence,  having  been  town- 
treasurer  for  a  considerable  length  of  time,  and,  moreover,  a  selectman 
until  old  age  and  infirmity  would  not  permit  him  to  serve  any  longer. 
Upon  his  request  to  be  excused,  it  was  not  only  acceded  to,  but  the 
town  passed  a  vote  of  thanks  for  his  past  services.  Among  his  particu- 
lar friends  were  the  Hon.  Judge  Woodbridge,  the  Hon.  Judge  Edwards, 
and  Dr.  Sergeant,  of  Stockbridge ;  the  Hon.  Elijah  Dwight  and  the 
Hon.  Judge  Whiting,  of  Great  Barrington  ;  Col.  Williams,  of  West 
Stockbridge,  and  the  Hon.  Judge  Sylvester,  of  Kinderhook,  who  never 
conceived  it  any  disparagement  to  honor  him  with  their  visits.  He 
lived  beloved,  and  died  lamented  on  the  29th  of  January,  1796,  in  the 
ninety-third  year  of  his  age,  and  in  full  communion  with  the  Protestant 
Episcopal  Church." 

Isaac  van  Deusen  and  many  of  his  descendants  were  buried  some 
distance  north  of  the  Manor  House,  while  the  slaves  were  buried  a  little 
nearer.     The  graves  of  the  latter  have  been  obliterated. 

The  family  is  no  longer  represented  in  the  town  of  Great  Barrington 
by  a  male  bearing  the  surname,  and  all  that  remains  of  the  Manor 
House  grounds  is  the  well,  and  one  of  the  stone  gate-posts,  erected  a  few 
years  before  the  death  of  the  only  lord  of  the  Manor. 

Primogeniture  has  its  faults,  and  so  has  equal  division.

CONNECTICUT. 


By  Eugene  F.  McPike,  Chicago. 


(Continued  from  Vol.  XXVIII.,  page  79,  of  The  Record.) 

Of  the  character  of  the  men  of  Roxbury,  we  find  in  "A  History  of 
Windham  County,  Connecticut,"  by  Miss  Ellen  D.  Larned  (Worcester, 
Mass.,  1874),  this  testimonial  :  "The  town  of  Roxbury  was  one  of  the 
most  ancient  and  influential  in  Massachusetts  Colony.  'The  Roxbury

Since  the  article  published  in  the  April  number  was  prepared,  Miss 
Larned  (who  resides  in  Thompson,  Conn.)  has  kindly  furnished  the  fol- 
lowing genealogy  of  "the  first  William,"  which,  she  states,  is  based  upon 
extracts  from  Mr.  Henry  A.  May's  "Genealogy  of  the  Lyon  and  May 
Families"  (as  yet  unpublished):

2.  William2  Lyon  (William'):  Came  from  London,  1635,  in  ship 
"Hopewell,"  aged  14.  He  was  a  Woodstock  proprietor  but  never 
removed  to  the  new  settlement  ("  Roxbury's  Colony  ").  He  died  1692. 
Married  Sarah  Ruggles,  June  17,   1646.     They  had: 

3.       i.  John3,  born  April  ic,  1647,  married  Abigail  Polly. 

ii.   Thomas3,  born  August  S,  1648,  married  Abigail  Gould. 

iii.   Samuel3.  v.   Joseph3. 

iv.   William3.  vi.  Jonathan3. 

Most  of  the  Lyon  families  of  Woodstock  are  descended  from  John3 
and  Joseph3. 

3.  Thomas3  Lyon  (William",  William1):  Was  an  original  proprietor  and 
settler  of  Woodstock.  Died  1717.*  His  children,  born  in  Woodstock, 
were  : 

i.   Thomas4,  baptized  1703.     Probably  died  in  infancy, 
ii.   Seth4,  baptized  March  24,  1704.! 
iii.   Gould4,  baptized  February  14,  1706. 
iv.   Noah4,  baptized  December  29,   17 10. 
Miss  Lamed  adds  that  Mr.  May's  \  genealogy  mentions  another  son, 
Ephraim  ;  but,  if  correct,  Miss  Lamed  is  of  the  opinion  that  he  must  have 
been  a  son  by  an  earlier  marriage — that  is,  before  coming  to  Woodstock, 
for  the  reason  that  records  show  : 

Ephraim  Lyon  married  first.  June  13,  1707,  Abigail  Crosbie  ; 
married  second,  July  4,  1723,  Alice  Lomraim. 
This  would  seem  to  receive  support  from  the  fact  that  Thomas  Lyon 
was  advanced  in  years  when  he  married  Abigail  Gould,  but  Miss  Lamed 
rather  inclines  to  the  view  that  this  Ephraim  was  not  a  son  of  Thomas', 
nor,  perhaps,  even  closely  related  to  him,  but  was  of  another  branch  of 
the  family,  and  may  have  been  the  father  of  Ephraim  Lyon  of  Ashford 
(born  1737),  designated  in  April  number  as  Ephraim3  Lyon. 

The  Town  Clerk  of  Ashford  reports  that  the  name  of  Ephraim  Lyon 
does  not  appear  upon  Ashford  records  until  about  1775.  This  indicates 
that  he  was  born  elsewhere,  possibly  Woodstock.  Records  of  Ashford 
do  not  show  name  of  Isaiah  Lyon  at  all.  Miss  Lamed  advises  she 
cannot  find  record  of  birth  of  Isaiah  L\on  in  Woodstock.      Probablv  both 


*  In  the  land  distribution  of  1724  thirty-one  and  one-half  acres  of  land  were  re- 
ceived by  the  heirs  of  Thomas3  Lyon. 

f  Seth4  Lyon  removed  to  Ashford  and.  in  1733,  deeded  to  "  Payson  "  thirty- 
two  acres  of  Second  Division  land  laid  out  to  his  father.  Town  records  of  A>h- 
ford  show  the  children  of  Seth'  to  have  been  : 

i.    Mary.  ii.   Persela.  iii.   Seth,  Jr. 

%  Mr.  Henry  A.  May,  whose  present  address  is  No.  47  Florence  Street,  Roslin- 
dale,  Boston,  Mass.,  is  secretary  of  "  Roxbury  Military  Historical  Society.''  He  has 
been  engaged  for  twenty-seven  years  or  rr.ore  in  his  genealogical  researches,  the  results 
of  which  he  expects  to  publish  soon,  together  with  a  "  History  of  Roxbury  from  1630 
to  date  of  Annexation  to  Boston.'' 

The  genealogy  of  Ephraim  Lyon  of  Ashford,  given  in  April  number,  was  based 
upon  the  late  Doctor  Woodward's  •'  Life  of  General  Nathaniel  Lyon,"  and  may, 
ultimately,  be  found  to  conflict  with  Mr.  May's  genealogy.  On  this  point,  Miss 
Larned  writes  :  "  Dr.  Woodward  was  a  most  careful  and  painstaking  writer,  but  he 
had  not  the  opportunity  for  research  that  Mr.  May  has  had,  and  when  he  wrote, 
thirty-five  years  ago,  there  was  far  less  interest  in  genealogical  researches  than  at  pres- 
ent, so  that  Mr.  May  is  much  more  trustworthy  with  regard  to  the  early  history  of 
the  family."

Isaiah  and  Ephraim,*  while  perhaps  not  natives  of  Woodstock,  resided 
there,  the  latter  removing  to  Ashford  about  1760,  and  the  former  remain- 
ing in  Woodstock  (as  was  shown  in  April  number).  This  theory  is 
supported  by  item  in  Miss  Larned's  "  History  of  Windham  County," 
Volume  II.,  page  iq,  Chapter  II.:  "Ashford  " — "  Ephraim  Lyon  removed 
from  Woodstock  to  the  east  part  of  the  town,  and  was  greatly  esteemed 
as  a  man  of  shrewdness  and  sound  judgment"  Also  on  page  22,  same 
work,  Ephraim  Lyon  is  found  among  objectors  to  proposed  subdivision 
of  Ashford  into  two  or  more  parts  (March,  1764).  In  Woodward's 
"  Life  of  Gen'l  M.  Lyon,"  at  bottom  of  page  25,  appears  this  note  : 
"Ashford  was  divided  in  the  year  1847,  the  eastern  portion  embracing  the 
homestead  of  the  Lyon  family,  being  constituted  a  new  town  and  called 
Eastford." 

In  order  to  more  nearly  perfect  the  genealogy  given  in  the  April  issue, 
a  few  lines  will  be  added  here.  CaTe  must,  however,  be  taken  not  to 
confuse  the  numbers  denoting  generation  with  numbers  used  in  the 
beginning  of  this  present  article. 

The  name  of  an  "  Isaiah  Lyon  "  appears  as  a  private  in  Captain 
Samuel  McClelland's  Company  of  Woodstock  (36  horses  rode),  April, 
1775.  This  was,  undoubtedly,  Isaiah3.  Luther  Wells6  Lyon  (grand- 
son of  Isaiah:)  possessed  a  "  Hessian  shot-gun  "  which,  according  to 
family  tradition,  had  been  used  by  his  paternal  grandfather  during  the 
Revolutionary  War.  (This  "clue  "  tends  to  prove  identity.)  The  mid- 
dle name  of  Luther  W."  Lyon  was  Wells  as  supposed,  and  his  first  wife 
(Nancy  Wells)  was  either  his  first  or  second  cousin.  This  information 
(based  upon  family  tradition)  was  received  from  a  daughter  of  Mrs. 
Rebecca  Greene"  (Lyon)  Gibson  of  Brookfield,  Mass. 

Luther  Wells6  Lyon  died  July  30,  1885.  The  second  wife  of  Luther 
Wells4  Lyon  was  Rebecca  Ingraham  Greene,  of  Bristol,  R.  I.  Names  of 
their  children  were  given  in  wrong  order  in  April  number.  Should  read  : 
i.,  Amy  Ann6;  ii.,  George  Greene6:  iii.,  Rebecca  Greene6.  George  Greene6 
Lyon  died  in  or  near  Chicago,  111.,  September  23,  1873.

NOTES. 


Long  Island  Genealogy. — Readers  of  The  Record  will  doubtless  be  glad 
to  learn  that  the  Long  Island  Traveler,  published  at  Southold,  N.  Y.,  has  a  weekly 
column  of  Notes  and  Queries,  devoted  exclusively  to  Long  Island  genealogy. 

This  undertaking  began  with  the  paper's  issue  of  Tuly  2d,  and  much  interesting 
and  valuable  material  has  already  been  contributed.  Genealogists  who  are  endeavor- 
ing to  unravel  tangled  threads  in  the  family  skein  will  do  well  to  make  their  wants 
known  in  the  columns  of  the   Traveler.  r.  k. 

The  Salmon  Record. — N.  Hubbard  Cleveland,  of  Southold,  Suffolk  County, 
N.  Y.,  is  the  owner  of  copyright  of  the  "Salmon  Record,"  which  is  a  manuscript 
volume  of  one  hundred  and  seventy-eight  octavo  pages,  and  begins  in  1696.  Some 
parts  of  it  have  become  almost  illegible.  It  is  mainly  a  record  of  marriages  and  deaths 
of  residents  of  Southold,  or  of  persons  more  or  less  closely  related  to  that  place. 

For  convenience  as  an  ancient  authority  of  reference,  it  was  arranged  several 
years  ago  in  alphabetical  order  by  surnames  of  males.  In  view  of  its  interest  to 
thousands  who  trace  their  lineage  to  old  Southold  families,  some  part  of  it  was  pub- 
lished in  a  local  paper. 

Many  requests  have  been  received  from  all  parts  of  the  Union  for  it  to  be  pub- 
lished in  book  form  and  arranged  alphabetically  by  the  surnames  of  females  also. 

The  compiler  feels  that  it  would  be  unjust  to  himself  to  assume  its  publication 
without  satisfactory  assurance  that  the  "Salmon  Record"  isappreciated  and  wanted. 

All  who  wish  to  subscribe  for  the  book,  if  published,  are  requested  to  send  their 
names  to  Mr.  Cleveland,  at  the  above  address.  The  price  will  not  exceed  three  dol- 
lars. It  is  well  known  that  many  descendants  of  the  first  settlers  of  Long  Island  have 
family  records  that  would  be  of  great  value  to  posterity,  if  published  ;  such  records 
will  be  cheerfully  incorporated  in  their  proper  place  if  sent  to  Mr.  Cleveland.     R.  K.

Many  thanks  are  due  "  G.  \V.  C."  for  his  kindness.      Information  is  sought  about

Janszen  Schol,"  and  his  wife  "  Grietie  Provoost."  Were  they  Annatje's  parents?  If 
not,  whose  daughter  was  she  ? 

Believing  that  this  solves  the  ancestry  of  Cornelius  Mandeville,  the  next  question 
is,  who  can  give  similar  facts  for  Rachel  Horton  ?  The  following  may  be  a  partial 
solution  of  the  question.  Who  can  prove  it?  The  courtesy  would  be  greatly

ling, grandson  of  the  above  Hendrik,  whose  names  appear  as  sponsors  in  the  records 
of  the  Hackensack  and  Schralenburgh  churches.  Teunis  Helling  married  Margrietje 
Blauvelt  in  1728.  Where  did  he  go  from  Hackensack?  His  sister  Susanna  married 
Abraham  Quackenbosch  in  1729,  and  brother  Samuel  married  Francyntje  Van  Hoorn 
in  1731,  and  numerous  baptisms  of  their  children  appear  in  the  records.

Bryan. — Will  of  Alexander  Bryan,  Jr.,  found  in  New  York  City,  made  Feb- 
ruary 24,  1758.  He  remembered  his  son  Ebenezer,  who  was  to  have  homestead  in 
Huntington,  L.  I.  Whom  did  this  Ebenezer  marry,  and  when  and  where  did  he 
die  ?  H.  \V.  BRYANT,  Box  57,  East  Hartford,  Conn. 

Wanted  the  ancestry  of:  1.  Mary  R.  White,  who  married  George  F.  Ryerson,  of 
Pompton,  N.  J.,  or  vicinity  about  1750.  She  is, said  to  have  been  a  descendant  of 
Peregrine  White,  who  was  born  on  the  Mayjlowei ,  1620.  Was  she  connected  with 
Joseph4  (Daniel3,  Peregrine'2,  William')  White  of  Marshfield,  Mass.,  who  married 
Elizabeth  Dwelly  and  removed  to  Connecticut?  2.  Diedrich  Tysen,  of  Pompton  or 
vicinity,  who  married  Jane,  daughter  of  George  F.  Ryerson,  about  1773.  3.  Antie 
Breyant,  who  married  Nicasius  Kip,  of  Hackensack,  N.  J.,  or  vicinity,  prior  to  1694.

genealogy,  came  from  Amsterdam  and  settled  in  Hackensack?  4.  Nicasius  Kip. 
Was  he  the  son  of  Hendrick  Kip  and  Anna,  daughter  of  Nicasius  de  Sille,  married

maiden  name  of  Hannah,  the  wife  of  William3  Soule  (George2,  George')?  4.  Who 
was  the  husband  of  Hannah4  Brewster  (Wrestling3,  Love2,  William1)?  If  Wrestling 
left  a  will  it  might  inform  us.  Jonathan  was  a  favorite  name  in  the  Brewster  family, 
but  seems  not  to  have  appeared  in  the  Soule  family  until  applied  to  a  son  of  William 
and    Hannah   (  )   Soule.     The   Brewsters  were  of  Duxbury,  and  though 

William  Soule  was  of  Dartmouth  his  grandfather  was  of  Duxbury,  and  his  father 
probably  until  16S6.  5.  What  was  the  maiden  name  of  Mehitable,  the  wife  of  Rich-

William1),  of  Shrewsbury,  N.  J.?  He  was  born  on  Cape  Cod  and  may  have  married 
there.  9.  Who  were  the  parents  of  Margaret  Chamberlin,  who  m.,  1755,  in  Shrews-

Akerly. — Rev.  Benjamin  Akerly,  D.D.,  one  of  the  oldest  residents  of  Oakland, 
Cal.,  and  the  most  venerable  presbyter  of  the  diocese,  died  at  his  home  in  that  city, 
the  24  August,  1897,  in  his  85th  year. 

The  Akerly  family  were  originally  from  Lancashire,  Eng.^  They  settled  on  Long 
Island,  probably  coming  by  way  of  Connecticut. 

Benjamin  Akerly,  the  3d  of  6  children,  was  born  2S  October,  1S12,  at  Fort  Gan- 
sevoort,  New  York  City,  where  his  father,  Samuel3  Akerly,  M.D.,  (Saml.2,  Benj.1,) 
was  Post  Surgeon  during  the  war  of  1S12.  Benjamin's  mother  was  Mary5  Kelchum 
(Amos4,  Joseph3,  Capt.  Nathaniel2,  Joseph1)  of  Waterford,  N.  Y. 

The  1st  wife  of  Dr.  Benjamin  Akerly  was  Anne,  daughter  of  Christopher  Xie- 
buhr,  to  whom  he  was  married  15  April,  1832.      Issue,  Christopher,  who  died  young. 

Dr.  Akerly  married  2d  in  Oakland,  Cal.,  S  October,  1857,  Catherine  M.,  daugh- 
ter of  John  and  Eliza  (Mildeburgher)   Hardenburgh,   of  New  York.     They  had   12 

children,    S    of   whom  survive  :   Benjamin   Mildeburgher,  ,  James  Clark  Smith, 

M.D.,  ,  Morris  Ketchum,  Samuel, ,  Edith,  wife  of  Fredk.  McC.  Buck, , 

Ellsworth  Alden,  Graham,  and  George  Parry,  all  of  California. 

Dr.  Akerly  was  a  graduate  of  the  General  Theological  Seminary  in  New  York, 
and  was  ordained  by  Bishop  Onderdonk,  3  July,  1S42.  He  was  successively  Rector 
of  Chfist  Church,  Green  Bay,  Wis.;  St.  Paul's,  Milwaukee;  St.  Paul's,  Morrisania, 
N.  Y.;  and  of  St.  John's,  Oakland.  Cal.,  from  1S5S-92,  and  since  that  time  Rector 
Emeritus  of  the  same.  He  was  for  many  years  Registrar  of  the  Diocese  of  California, 
and  founder  of  nearly  all  the  Episcopal  churches  in  Oakland  and  its  vicinity. 

His  character  is  well  summed  up  in  the  Oakland  "Enquirer":  "  Nature  makes 
but  few  such  men  as  Dr.  Akerly,  and  in  whatever  age  they  live,  the  world  agrees  to 
'1  them  blessed  during  their  lives,  and  to  hold  their  memories  precious  after  they 
:  dead.  Had  Dr.  Akerly  lived  i

ent.      His  universal  love  and  sympathy  was  so  breathed  forth  in  his  words  that  no  one 
ever  approached  him  without  feeling  the  influence  of  his  presence  as  a  benediction."

BOOK   NOTICES. 

A  History  of  the  Family  of  Seton  during  Eight  Centuries.  By 
George  Seton,  Advocate,  M.  A.  Oxon.,  etc.,  Edinburgh.  Privately  printed  by  T. 
and  A.  Constable,  printers  to  her  Majesty,  1896.  2  vols.,  pp.  10S0  4-  xxxvi.  Impres- 
sion 212  copies,  all  numbered,  and  of  which  Nos.  I  to  12  are  on  large  paper.  No.  10, 
signed  T.  and  A.  Constable. 

This  elegant  gift  from  Monsignor  Seton,  D.D.,  of  St.  Joseph's,  Jersey  City,  X.  J., 
is,  as  appears  above,  one  of  the  twelve  large-paper  copies,  which  cost  SJjS.oo  to  sub- 
scribers. •  It  is  elegantly  illustrated,  having  twenty-seven  full-page  illustrations,  nine- 
teen views,  fifty-eight  portraits,  one  hundred  and  forty  seals,  signatures,  and  monu- 
ments ;  three  hundred  and  three  colored  shields  of  arms,  main  line  and  cadets;  and 
fifty  odd  pages  of  index.  It  is  one  of  the  most  beautiful  family  histories  yet  pub- 
lished. A  perfect  specimen  of  artistic  work  on  the  finest  paper,  untrimmed,  with 
india  proofs  and  metallic  arms.  He  who  can  make  such  a  book  deserves  to  be 
proud,  and  the  feeling  may  be  shared  by  those  fortunate  enough  to  possess  one. 
The  New  York  Genealogical  and  Biographical  Society  will  long  remember  the  giver. 

Convers  Family  History  in  the  Line  of  Joseph  Convers  of  Bedford, 
Mass.,  1739-1823.  John  Jay  Putnam,  Compiler  and  Editor.  Worcester,  F.  S. 
Blanchard  &  Co.,  1S97.     Cloth,  b\  x  10,  pp.  97. 

The  plan  of  this  book  is  a  little  different  from  the  form  usually  adopted,  and 
treats  of  families  of  Joseph  and  Elizabeth  (Davis)  Converse,  Levi  and  Betsey  (Con- 
verse) Mead,  Joseph  and  Lucy  (Brown)  Converse,  Jeremiah  and  Sarah  (Converse) 
Goldsmith,  Josiah  and  Debprah  Converse,  James  and  Mehetable  (Cogswell)  Con- 
verse, James  and  Charlotte  (White)  Converse,  William  and  Sarah  (Hunt)  Converse, 
John  and  Mary  (Converse)  Putnam,  Joshua  and  Joanna  (Hildreth)  Converse.  We 
think  large  Roman  numerals  repeated  before  each  name  less  pleasing  than  the  small 
Arabic  index.     There  is  considerable  biography.      Unfortunately  there  is  no  index.
